Bishop Ignatie [Ignatius] and the little girl – this was such a heartbreaking scene…

“I see Andrada here, a very beautifully dressed little girl, in a wheelchair… and I want to offer this bouquet to this little girl’s mother.
Look how she smiles, how much joy Andrada has on her face!
Would you offer it to your mother, Andrada? Do you give it to her? It is because she is taking care of you? Very good care of you… and it is not easy for her… Look, we call your mother to come here… and you will give her the flower bouquet…

Where is your mother?
We call here Andrada’s mother… please… with all the emotions…

“I love you, mommy!”
How beautiful… <clapping>
Without me telling her, Andrada told her mother, “I love you, Mom!”
When she gave her the flower bouquet…

May God help you… and we think of all the children… their parents do not find it difficult, if they love them it is not difficult, but not very easy…
May God help you and may you have joy!

And what is your name?
Daria.
We also do not forget Daria, she’s Andrada’s sister…
Take care of Andrada and love your mother a lot, a lot, a lot, okay?
Pray for her in the evening, in your prayers, for God to give her health to be able to raise you…

You know that when I get flowers I offer them to others…
I love flowers very much, they are very dear to me, and I hope that the Fathers will still offer me flowers in the future… They may be disappointed that I offer them to others, but this is what we all have to learn, bishops and priests, to give… to offer to the others, not to collect for ourselves…”
