An experience that <strong>reveals the power of a word spoken with love, a gesture that says \u201cI am here with you,\u201d a silence that listens and sustains<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We now celebrate this new anniversary with hearts full of gratitude to God, who sustains and encourages us, grateful for all the people who, in one way or another, have been and continue to be part of this beautiful journey, and we renew our commitment to continue being that <strong>merciful presence of the \u201cGood Jesus\u201d<\/strong> who becomes the Good Samaritan and never passes by human suffering. We also ask for His grace and blessing to continue giving ourselves with a <em>\u201clove that never says enough,\u201d<\/em> as Joaquina de Vedruna teaches us through her life. <\/p>\n\n<p
