We conclude with the words of Fr. General: \u201cThank you, dear Father and Brother Francois Marie Lethel, for your passion and your enthusiasm for everything you do and live. Thank you because your life and your dedication are \u201cfor souls\u201d. Thank you for your readiness to live what God has indicated to you with the spirit of a disciple, which is the greatest lesson of a genuine master. Thank you, dear Father and Brother Bruno, for your humanity, for having shown us the most human aspect of theology, for putting Christ at the centre, for your art in expressing important things in simple words, for teaching us how the virtues can be lived by the simple man in the street\u201d.<\/p>\n
