"A question many of us ask ourselves is the following: where is the key for the renewal of the Church and of society in Europe? Starting from the experience of a group of bishop friends, as well as the life of the local Church that I am allowed to serve, I am fully convinced that the key lies in communion. This is the vision of the Bible, this is also today's experience of so many faithful in Europe. To live Christian communion is a new discovery to them, an experience full of hope."
