"My wish for you is that you may persevere in the Christian faith. It is true that you are but a small group. However, do not forget that you are in communion with the one universal Church, the Church of Rome, and the Holy Father. In the two months since my arrival in Bangkok, I have come to know this Church well enough to appreciate it."

"Tonight, we pay tribute to the first missionary, her faith in the Annunciation leads Mary to visit Elizabeth, with the announcement of Christ... The event that had taken place deep inside her becomes a message that is "broadcast" as news."
