This is an excerpt from an address given in Central Park, New York on October 7, 1996.
"You are called to stand up for life!...You are called to work and pray against abortion, against violence of all kinds, including the violence done against women's and childen's dignity through pornography. Stand fup for the life of the aged and the handicapped, against attempts to promote assisted-suicide and euthanasia! Stand up for mariage and family life! Stand up for purity!
You young people will live most of your lives in the next (this) millennium. You must help the HOly Spirit to shape its social, moral, and spiritual character. You must trnasform your joy in being adopted sons and daughters of God throug the creative power of the Holy Spirit. Do this wiht the help of Mary, Mother of Jesus. Cling to her Rosary, and you will never wander far from her side...Do not be afraid! The power of the Holy Spirit is with you!"
Taken from "Spes Nostra" Volume 4, Number 1 (1996)
