A quote from Pope Francis:
"The Church cannot be other than the sacrament of God's mercy in the world, in every time and towards all humanity. Think of how many saints there have been throughout the centuries who have illuminated the history of the Church! They all became merciful because they let their hearts be filled with divine mercy. They gave flesh to the love of the Love, pouring it into the many needs of suffering humanity, thus reflecting the merciful face of Christ. And Christ explains this to his disciples with two verbs: forgive and give."
