The very first words, then, that I would like to say to every young Christian are these: Christ is alive and he wants you to be alive!Ģ. Christ is alive! He is our hope, and in a wonderful way he brings youth to our world, and everything he touches becomes young, new, full of life. TO YOUNG PEOPLE AND TO THE ENTIRE PEOPLE OF GODġ.
