In this Year of Faith, we pray to the Lord that the Church may always be a true family that brings God’s love to everyone.
Pope FrancisWhen we walk without the cross, when we build without the cross and when we proclaim Christ without the cross, we are not disciples of the Lord. We are worldly. We may be bishops, priests, cardinals, popes, all of this, but we are not disciples of the Lord.
Pope FrancisI am a sinner. This is the most accurate definition. It is not a figure of speech, a literary genre. I am a sinner.
Pope FrancisWe have to state, without mincing words, that there is an inseparable bond between our faith and the poor. May we never abandon them.
Pope FrancisOh Mary, star of the sea, once again we recourse to thee, to find refuge and sernity, to implore your protection and help. Mother of God and our Mother, turn your sweet gaze towards those who face the dangers of the sea everyday to guarantee their families the necessary sustenance for life, to protect the respect of creation, to serve peace between peoples.
Pope Francis
