Pope Francis

Every Christian is a missionary to the extent that he or she bears witness to God’s love. Be missionaries of God’s tenderness!
Pope Francis
Image
The Cross isn't an ornament, mere symbol. It's the mystery of God's love, that He died for our sins.
Pope Francis
Image
Christians must respond to evil with good, taking the cross upon themselves as Jesus did

Image
Money has to serve, not to rule!
Pope Francis
Image
Defend the unborn against abortion even if they persecute you, calumniate you, set traps for you, take you to court or kill you.

I cannot live without people. I need to live my life with others.
Pope Francis
Image
Sometimes we are tempted to find excuses and complain, acting as if we could only be happy if a thousand conditions were met...I can say that the most beautiful and natural expressions of joy which I have seen in my life were in poor people who had little to hold on to.
Pope Francis
Image
Lord Jesus, make us capable of loving as you love.
Pope Francis
Image
We are all jars of clay, fragile and poor, yet we carry within us an immense treasure.
Pope Francis
Image
I prefer a church which is bruised, hurting and dirty because it has been out on the streets, rather than a church which is unhealthy from being confined and from clinging to its own security.
Pope Francis
Image
Whenever people listen to one another humbly and openly, their shared values and aspirations become all the more apparent. Diversity is no longer seen as a threat, but as a source of enrichment.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us go back to the Lord. The Lord never tires of forgiving: never! It is we who tire of asking his forgiveness. Let us ask for the grace not to tire of asking forgiveness, because he never tires of forgiving.
Pope Francis
Image
The only way to heal is to look at the Cross, to look at God Who takes upon Himself our sins: my sin is there.
Pope Francis
Image
Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved.
Pope Francis
Image
Holy Week is a privileged time when we are called to draw near to Jesus: friendship with him is shown in times of difficulty.
Pope Francis
Image
I will be praying with my best wishes that the Orthodox move ahead because they are brothers and their bishops are bishops like us.
Pope Francis
Image
The proclamation of Jesus is not a veneer: the proclamation of Jesus goes straight to the bones, heart, goes deep within and change us. And the spirit of the world does not tolerate it, will not tolerate it, and therefore, there is persecution.
Pope Francis
Image
I want to see the church get closer to the people. I want to get rid of clericalism, the mundane, this closing ourselves off within ourselves, in our parishes, schools or structures. Because these need to get out!
Pope Francis
Image
I dream of a church that is a mother and shepherdess.
Pope Francis
