Image
We need courage if we are to be faithful to the Gospel.
Pope Francis
Image
Our efforts must aim at restoring hope, righting wrongs, maintaining commitments, and thus promoting the well-being of individuals and of peoples.
Pope Francis
Image
Through prayer, charity and humility before God, people receive a heart which is firm and merciful, attentive and generous, a heart which is not closed, indifferent or prey to the globalization of indifference.
Pope Francis
Image
Fathers are so necessary as examples and guides for our children in wisdom and virtue. Without father figures, young people often feel orphaned left adrift at a critical moment in their growth and development.
Pope Francis
Image
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
Image
Right now, we don't have a very good relation with creation.
Pope Francis
Image
And now I would like to give the blessing, but first - first I ask a favor of you: before the Bishop blesses his people, I ask you to pray to the Lord that he will bless me: the prayer of the people asking the blessing for their Bishop.
Pope Francis
Image
Today everything comes under the laws of competition and the survival of the fittest, where the powerful feed upon the powerless. As a consequence, masses of people find themselves excluded and marginalized: without work, without possibilities, without any means of escape.
Pope Francis
Image
If Jesus is to become the center of our life, we need to spend time in His presence, before the Tabernacle.
Pope Francis
Image
Ask yourselves this question: How often is Jesus inside and knocking at the door to be let out, to come out? And we do not let him out because of our own need for security, because so often we are locked into ephemeral structures that serve solely to make us slaves and not free children of God.
Pope Francis
Image
Nurturing and cherishing creation is a command God gives not only at the beginning of history, but to each of us. It is part of his plan it means causing the world to grow responsibly, transforming it so that it may be a garden, a habitable place for everyone.
Pope Francis
Image
How does St. Joseph exercise his role as protector? Discreetly, humbly and silently, but with an unfailing presence and utter fidelity, even when he finds it hard to understand.
Pope Francis
Image
Now, at the end of my visit to the Philippines, I commend you to Him, to Jesus who came among us as a child. May He enable all the beloved people of this country to work together, protecting one another, beginning with your families and communities, in building a world of justice, integrity and peace.
Pope Francis
Image
God is not afraid of new things.
Pope Francis
Image
The Church of Rome, the Pope has always said, 'Seek peace.'
Pope Francis
Image
I had a long conversation with the imam, the Grand Imam of the Al-Azhar University, and I know how they think... They seek peace, encounter.
Pope Francis
Image
I love tango, and I used to dance when I was young.
Pope Francis
Image
Open your hearts to the Lord. The Lord is waiting for you and the Church will welcome you if your willingness to serve good is as clear and public as your choice to serve evil was.
Pope Francis
Image
The Earth is our environment to protect and the garden to tend to.
Pope Francis
Image
Every child that isn't born, but is unjustly condemned to be aborted, has the face of Jesus Christ, has the face of the Lord.
Pope Francis
