‘Let us make this journey as families, let us keep walking together. What we have been promised is greater than we can imagine. May we never lose heart because of our limitations, or ever stop seeking that fullness of love and communion which God holds out before us.’
– Pope Francis, Amoris Laetitia (On Love in the Family), 325.
