The Gospel must not be kept hidden because of fear or indifference. It was never meant to be hidden away in private. It has to be put on a stand so that people may see its light and give praise to our Heavenly Father.

Pope John Paul II
In this silence of the white Host, carried in the Monstrance, are all His words there is His whole life given in offering to the Father for each of us there is also the glory of the glorified body, which started with the Resurrection, and still continues in Heavenly union.
Pope John Paul II
The world looks to the priest, because it looks to Jesus! No one can see Christ but everyone sees the priest, and through him they wish to catch a glimpse of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur and dignity of the priest!
