@christopherhale @BishopBarron What asinine arrogance!
Shame on whoever is responsible for this insult to the memory of the Vicar of Christ!

[Cardinal Napier @CardinalNapier]

@Sachinettiyil It would be really instructive to have the reasons for the choices! In particular whether a choice for continuity or backtracking for whatever reason!

Another US archdiocese lowers Confirmation age to bolster youth formation https://t.co/cJ0yRdH5UY
When the SACBC, set the age for Confirmation at midTeens, its reasoning was : This is the time when kids are making life changing decisions. Let’s also include this faith decision!

@elonmusk What arrogance! This is no way to treat an adult man, let alone the President of a country! Utter contempt for a fellow human being!

[Cardinal Napier @CardinalNapier]

@MackyD_Mrs This is most interesting! Braamfontein Church is in the Archdiocese of Johannesburg, and I’ve never had jurisdiction over that Diocese. Therefore I could not possibly have done what you allege!

Something kind and stoical about His Holiness Pope Francis. Wishing him every grace in his hours of tribulation. I hope he can prevail.

[Cardinal Napier @CardinalNapier]

@KatiePMcGrady That’s exactly how some viewed the last years of Pope JP2, an object lesson on how to live with infirmity and help others to do the same!

[Katie Prejean McGrady @KatiePMcGrady]

So much chatter about the Pope resigning.

That’s not the norm. Or the custom.
Or what I think will happen.

It is, in some ways, part of the Petrine office and ministry to teach us how to die.

And I think, in these days of watching & worrying about Pope Francis, we have the chance to pray in a renewed way, for the comfort & healing of the aged & ill & those close to going home to the Lord, especially our Holy Father.

@elonmuskTN It’s right in the centre!

[Cardinal Napier @CardinalNapier]

@elonmuskTN No! He’s not a genius! He’s just gifted with acute powers of observation

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I have recently received many messages of affection, and I have been particularly struck by the letters and drawings from children. Thank you for your closeness, and for the consoling prayers I have received from all over the world!

Let’s #PrayTogether for the doctors, nurses, and hospital staff caring for #PopeFrancis. May the Lord bless them with wisdom, patience, and strength, and may Our Lady, Health of the Sick, protect and guide them in their service.

@MmusiMaimane The problem is our schools would be even more overcrowded and our universities empty!
Question 1: How would our government look?
Question 2: Would there be enough teachers able to do the job?

@VaticanNews We join the Holy Father in praying for the late Cardinal Angelo Amato, who honoured us in South Africa by presiding over the Beatification of Benedict Daswa, the first South. African born person to receive this distinction. Benedict is honoured as a Martyr for the Faith!
