"The coronavirus pandemic has revealed how small man is, and has overthrown his apparent omnipotence. I would like to see the positives throughout this whole trial: the need to re-assess the value of the human person, to seek again for true communion with others, to thirst heartily for what we were deprived of and continue to be deprived of during this period, and to turn our hands towards Heaven in prayer, with a prayer of the heart. I would say that the virus is not a blow to the Church, but is a blow to the selfishness and arrogance of man."
-Archbishop Irenaeus of Crete
