Julio 27, 2017: "Quiero ofrecerles hoy mis reflexiones sobre la importante conversación que ha estado teniendo lugar en la Iglesia este año: la cuestión de cómo vamos a vivir nuestra fe católica y a llevar a cabo la misión de la Iglesia en una sociedad “post-cristiana”. Una sociedad que es cada vez más hostil a nuestros valores y a nuestras creencias."
July 27, 2017: "I want to offer my reflections today on the important conversation that has been going on in the Church this year — the question of how we are going to live our Catholic faith and carry out the Church’s mission in a “post-Christian” society. A society that every day is becoming more and more hostile to our values and our beliefs."
July 3, 2017: "St. Junípero was an immigrant and a missionary, a Hispanic who came to this land from Spain by way of Mexico. His witness reminds us — and we should never forget it — that the mission to America was a continental mission from the beginning. It was a mission to make all the peoples of the Americas, North and South, into a one family — a new world of faith."
