Christians are those who let God clothe them with goodness and mercy, with Christ, so as to become, like Christ, servants of God and others.
Pope FrancisWe can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. BUt the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyses: 'I am talking with you in order to persuade you.' No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attracting, not proselytizing.
Pope FrancisIn the difficult moments of life, Christians can turn to the Mother of God and find protection and care.
Pope FrancisWe human beings are not only the beneficiaries but also the stewards of other creatures. Thanks to our bodies, God has joined us so closely to the world around us that we can feel the desertification of the soil almost as a physical ailment, and the extinction of a species as a painful disfigurement. Let us not leave in our wake a swatch of destruction and death which will affect our own lives and those of future generations.
