2. Getting married and sharing one’s life is something beautiful.
We have a saying in Spanish:
“Sorrow shared by two is half a sorrow; joy shared by two is joy and a half”.
That is what marriage is like.
3. It is also nice to hear the beautiful music coming from over there …
the sound of babies crying! That is a sign of hope, the loveliest music,
but it is also the best sermon, to hear a baby crying, because it is a cry of hope,
[a sign] that life goes on, that life goes forward, that love is fruitful.
4. children must listen to their wisdom, (of the old)
you young people ought to listen to their wisdom,
and talk to them in order to keep going,
because they are your roots
5. It is so important to listen
to the elderly, to our grandparents!
We have much to learn from your experience of a married life
sustained daily by the grace of the sacrament.
6. Together with all spouses who have come far along this path,
you are the keepers of our collective memory.
We will always need your faith-filled witness.
It is a precious resource for young couples,
who look to the future with excitement and hope and,
perhaps… a touch of trepidation: what will that future be like?
7. Those words “all the days of my life” are a commitment to make love grow,
because love has nothing of the provisional.
Call it excitement, call it, I don’t know, enchantment,
but real love is definitive, a “you and I”.
8. Of all the kinds of human fruitfulness, marriage is unique.
It is about a love that gives rise to new life.
It involves mutual responsibility for the transmission of God’s gift of life, and
it provides a stable environment in which that new life can grow and flourish.
9. Marriage in the Church, that is, the sacrament of matrimony,
shares in a special way in the mystery of God’s eternal love.
10. When a Christian man and woman enter the bond of marriage,
God’s grace enables them freely to promise one another
an exclusive and enduring love.
11. the sacrament of marriage becomes a sacramental sign
of the new and eternal covenant
between the Lord and his bride, the Church.
12. Jesus is ever present in their midst.
He sustains them throughout life in their mutual gift of self,
in fidelity and in indissoluble unity (cf. Gaudium et Spes, 48).
13. Jesus’ love is, for couples, a rock and refuge in times of trial,
but more importantly, a source of constant growth
in pure and enduring love
14. Gamble big, for your entire life! Take a risk!
Because marriage is also a risk, but it is a risk worth taking.
For your whole life, because that is how love is.
15. God has a dream for us and he asks us to make it our own.
So do not be afraid of that dream! Dream big!
Cherish that dream and dream it together each day anew.
16. God binds himself to remain faithful to his covenant,
even when we grieve him or grow weak in our love.
17. God says in the bilble - “I will never fail you nor forsake you!” (Heb 13:5).
And you, as husbands and wives, anoint one another with those words of promise,
every day for the rest of your lives.
18. Yet the first and most important place for passing on the faith is the home.
It is in the home that we learn to believe,
through the quiet daily example of parents
who love our Lord and trust in his word.
19. There, in the home, which we can call the “domestic church”,
children learn the meaning of fidelity, integrity and sacrifice.
They see how their mother and father interact with each other,
how they care for each other and for others,
how they love God and love the Church.
20. In this way, children can breathe in the fresh air of the Gospel
and learn to understand, judge and act in a manner
worthy of the legacy of faith they have received.
21. The faith, brothers and sisters, is passed on “around the family table”,
at home in ordinary conversation, in the language
that persevering love alone knows how to speak.
22. faith is passed on in everyday speech!
The speech of the home,
everyday life, life in the family.
23. May your children see you do the same, caressing one another,
kissing one another, embracing one another.
This is magnificent, because that is how they learn
the everyday speech of love, and faith
24. So it is important pray together as a family;
speak of good and holy things,
and let our Mother Mary into your life
and the life of your family.
25. Celebrate the feasts of the Christian people;
let you children see what it is to celebrate a family feast.
26. Live in deep solidarity
with those who suffer
and are at the edges of society,
and let your children
learn to do the same.
27. your children will learn from you how to live a Christian life;
you will be their first teachers in the faith, handing on the faith.
28. Today’s world has little use for the weak,
the vulnerable and all those it deems “unproductive”.
The world tells us to be strong and independent,
with little care for those who are alone or sad,
rejected or sick, not yet born or dying.
29. Our world needs a revolution of love!
The tumult of our times is really one of selfishness,
of personal interests…The world needs a revolution of love.
Let that revolution begin with you and your families!
30. There will be no revolution of love without a revolution of tenderness! …
By your example, may your children be guided to become a kinder, more loving,
more faith-filled generation, for the renewal of the Church and of all Irish society.
31. Together with the Pope, may the families of the whole Church,
represented this afternoon by couples old and young,
give thanks to God for the gift of faith
and the grace of Christian marriage.
32. In turn, let us promise the Lord that we will serve
the coming of his kingdom of holiness, justice and peace
by our fidelity to the vows we have made,
and by our steadfastness in love!
