More quotes by Pope Francis
It is true that going out on to the street implies the risk of accidents happening, as they would to any ordinary man or woman. But if the church stays wrapped up in itself, it will age. And if I had to choose between a wounded church that goes out on to the streets and a sick, withdrawn church, I would definitely choose the first one.
Pope Francis
Let us ask Mary to help us fix our eyes intently on Jesus, to follow him always, even when this is demanding.
Pope Francis
The border between good and evil passes not outside of us but within us
Pope Francis
Today, we need a Church capable of walking at people's side, of doing more than simply listening to them a Church which accompanies them on their journey.
Pope Francis
Consumerism has led us to become used to an excess and daily waste of food, to which, at times, we are no longer able to give a just value, which goes well beyond mere economic parameters. We should all remember, however, that throwing food away is like stealing from the tables of the the poor, the hungry!
Pope Francis
Lent is a good time for sacrificing. Let us deny ourselves something every day to help others.
Pope Francis
Many of you have asked the Lord, looking at Him: Why, Lord? And the Lord answers to each one of you, to your heart, Christ responds with His heart. It's the only thing I can tell you. Let us look to Christ, He is the Lord and He understands us because He underwent all the trials that we go through.
Pope Francis
This happens today: if the investments in the banks fall slightly... a tragedy... what can be done? But if people die of hunger, if they have nothing eat, if they have poor health, it does not matter! This is our crisis today!
Pope Francis
Let us protect with love all that God has given us!
Pope Francis
The proclamation of the Gospel is destined primarily to the poor, to those who often lack the essentials for a decent life. The good news is first announced to them, that God loves them before all others and comes to visit them through the acts of charity that the disciples of Christ carry out in his name.
Pope Francis
People in every nation enhance the social dimension of their lives by acting as committed and responsible citizens.
Pope Francis
But you too, help one another: help one another always. One another. In this way, by helping one another, we will do some good.
Pope Francis
May every Church and Christian community be a place of mercy amid so much indifference.
Pope Francis
Things from the heart don't have an explanation.
Pope Francis
The love of God is not generic. God looks with love upon every man and woman, calling them by name.
Pope Francis
Our efforts must aim at restoring hope, righting wrongs, maintaining commitments, and thus promoting the well-being of individuals and of peoples.
Pope Francis
Brothers and sisters, good evening. You all know that the duty of the conclave was to give a bishop to Rome. It seems that my brother cardinals have gone almost to the ends of the earth to get him... but here we are.
Pope Francis
We Christians bring peace and grace as a treasure to be offered to the world, but these gifts can bear fruit only when Christians live and work together in harmony. This makes it easier to contribute to building relations of respect and peaceful coexistence with those who belong to other religious traditions, and with non-believers.
Pope Francis
Do good: we will meet one another there.
Pope Francis
I have come that they may have life and have it in abundance, says Jesus. This is where true wealth is found, not in material things!
