More quotes by Pope Francis
Among us, who is above must be in service of the others. This doesn't mean we have to wash each other's feet every day, but we must help one another.
Pope Francis
Being a Christian means renouncing ourselves, taking up the cross and carrying it with Jesus. There is no other way.
Pope Francis
We need to be creative with young people. If they have no opportunities, they will get into drugs and be vulnerable to suicide.
Pope Francis
If we start without confidence, we have already lost half the battle and we bury our talents.
Pope Francis
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion. Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario.
Pope Francis
Seeking happiness in material things is a sure way of being unhappy.
Pope Francis
A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not in the Gospel.
Pope Francis
Let us all remember this: one cannot proclaim the Gospel of Jesus without the tangible witness of one's life.
Pope Francis
The Pope loves everyone, rich and poor alike, but the Pope has the duty, in Christ's name, to remind the rich to help the poor, to respect them, to promote them.
Pope Francis
If we, each doing our own part, if we do good to others, if we meet there, doing good, and we go slowly, gently, little by little, we will make that culture of encounter: we need that so much. We must meet one another doing good.
Pope Francis
We are called to be 'ambassadors for Christ' (2 Cor 5:20). Ours is a ministry of reconciliation ... To be an ambassador for Christ means above all to invite everyone to a renewed personal encounter with the Lord Jesus.
Pope Francis
Every threat to the family is a threat to society itself.
Pope Francis
How powerful prayer is! May we never lose the courage to say: Lord, give us your peace.
Pope Francis
There are some things we really need to take care of: the children, and grandparents. Children, whether they are young or older, they are the strength that moves us forward. We place our hope in them.Grandparents are the living memory of the family. They passed on the faith, they transmitted the faith, to us.
Pope Francis
Christmas celebrations are often full of sound. It would be good for us to make room for silence, to hear the voice of Love.
Pope Francis
Every Christian can witness to God in the workplace, not only with words, but above all with an honest life.
Pope Francis
Jesus fought Satan in 'hand to hand combat' . . . 'you need to protect this victory.'
Pope Francis
How many young people among you are like this? You know how to give and yet you have ever learned how to receive. You still lack one thing. Become a beggar. This is what you still lack. Learn how to beg. This isn’t easy to understand. To learn how to beg. To learn how to receive with humility.
Pope Francis
Today too, as at her origins, the Church... cries out:“Veni, Sancte Spiritus! Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, and kindle in them the fire of your love!” Amen.
Pope Francis
We have to find a new balance otherwise even the moral edifice of the church is likely to fall like a house of cards, losing the freshness and fragrance of the Gospel.
