She (the teacher Cardona) encouraged him and helped him a great deal. It was the first clear light )AD9).

What Toniolo said about the duty of being Apostles today and of using the means exploited by the opposition made sense to him.  He felt deeply obliged to prepare himself to do something for the Lord and for the women and men of the new century (AD, 15)

The specific aim of the publishing apostolate is the glory of God and the salvation of people’s souls. It is the same program that the Angels put into song at Bethlehem’s crib: “Gloria Deo, pax hominibus.”  It is the program of Jesus Christ and of his perennial life in the Church. A very lofty aim, therefore, a divine aim (AE, 17).
