He was a paradox ...
A mathematician and a mystic
A dreamer and a practical man
A stern and strict leader

 

Yet one who could be addressed with familiarity and affection.
He was an outstanding example for Modern Christians
He started a great mission movement among his own people.
He worked for the unity of Christians.
He provided opportunities for prayer and retreats.
He encouraged the apostolate of the laity.
