"Part of our mission is to help people carry the cross of their suffering," said Comboni Father Mario Benedetti. "That's what (St. Daniel) Comboni meant when he said that your suffering is also my suffering. So we walk together, we live together, we hope together. That's how I share the suffering of the people in my parish."
