Pope Francis
Image
I asked [Guadalupe] for the world, for peace, so many things. I asked forgiveness, I asked that the Church grows healthy, I asked for the Mexican people. And another thing I asked a lot for: that priests be true priests, and sisters true sisters, and bishops true bishops. As the Lord wants.
Pope Francis
Image
Lent comes providentially to reawaken us, to shake us from our lethargy.
Pope Francis
Image
Confession is the sacrament of the tenderness of God, his way of embracing us.
Pope Francis
Image
Human dignity is the same for all human beings: when I trample on the dignity of another, I am trampling on my own.
Pope Francis
Image
I love tango, and I used to dance when I was young.
Pope Francis
Image
We cannot give up in the face of evil. God is Love and he has defeated evil through Christ’s death and resurrection.
Pope Francis
Image
In the face of so many wounds that hurt us and could lead to a hardness of heart, we are called to dive into the sea of prayer, which is the sea of the boundless love of God, in order to experience his tenderness
Pope Francis
