sadly involves millions of women and children, may be ended.

2009-2010: The Year of the Priest

“Laid hold of by Christ” (Philippians 3:12)
unto the complete abandonment of one’s entire self to Him,
the priest takes on a closer likeness to Christ,
even in the love with which the eternal Priest has loved the Church His Body
and offered Himself entirely for her sake,
in order to make her a glorious, holy and immaculate Spouse
(Ephesians 5:25-27).
-Pope Paul VI
