“ For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?” Luke 9:24-25 “ Kto by si chcel zachrániť život , stratí ho; a kto by stratil život pre mňa , zachráni si ho. Veď čo prospeje človeku , keby aj celý svet získal, ale samého seba by stratil, alebo by si uškodil?” Lukáš 9:24-25
