In these days leading up to #Christmas, I invite everyone to renew our supplication to the Lord, asking Him to grant the gift of peace to our world. #PrayTogether

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us #PrayTogether that each of us may listen with our hearts to the cry of the Earth and of victims of environmental disasters and the climate crisis. May we make a personal commitment to care for the world we inhabit. #PrayerIntention #ClickToPray

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Without the Holy Spirit, the Church is lifeless, faith is only doctrine, morality merely a duty, and pastoral work just toil. Yet, with the Spirit, faith is life, God’s love inflames our hearts, and hope is born once again.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Eucharist impels us to a strong and committed love of neighbour. We cannot truly understand or live the meaning of the Eucharist if our hearts are closed to our brothers and sisters, especially toward those who are poor, suffering, or who may have gone astray in life.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Spirit of God who hovered over the waters at the beginning of time continues to be present, bringing light and order to our lives.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

In the face of a future that may seem dark, let us strive to sow hope and do good, in the conviction that life can be lived differently and that peace is possible. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The joy of the Gospel, when truly embraced, triggers in us the movement of discipleship. It provokes a real exodus from ourselves and sets us on a path to encounter the Lord and experience the fullness of life.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Jesus knows us and loves us. If we remain in Him, we should not fear because every cross will be transformed into resurrection, every sadness into hope, and all mourning into dancing. #EasterSeason

@nadineleonas May the Lord grant you all His strength and comfort.
May Baby Kayden rest in the eternal joy of heaven. So sorry for your pain.

[Faustine Wabwire @FWabwire]

@bankofferns We stand with you in prayer.

[Faustine Wabwire @FWabwire]

@MeetMeAtCalvary We stand with Baby Riker in prayer.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

God’s justice does not measure love on the scales of our returns, our performance or our failures: God just loves us, He loves us because we are his children, and He does so with an unconditional and freely-given love. #GospelOfTheDay (Mt 20:1-16)

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us #PrayTogether for those who lost their lives in an inundation in #Libya, for their families and for the displaced. May we not fail to show our solidarity with these brothers and sisters, as well as with the people of Morocco who are suffering from an earthquake.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Lord does not look for the centre-stage, but for the simple heart of those who desire him and love him without ostentation, without wanting to tower above others. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I renew my appeal to stop using religions to incite hatred, violence, extremism and blind fanaticism, and to refrain from using the name of God to justify acts of murder, exile, terrorism and oppression. #AgainstReligiousViolence

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Acts of love are a gift for those who do them, even before they benefit those who receive them. For whatever we hoard for ourselves will be lost, while whatever we give out of love will be our treasure in heaven. #WYD

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Holy women and men do not have easier lives than others. On the contrary, they are often objects of opposition. But through #prayer, they nourish the flame of their faith, as oil used to do for lamps. And thus, they move ahead walking in faith and hope.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

God is not far away, He is a Father, He knows you and loves you; he wants to hold your hand, even when you travel on steep paths, even when you fall. Indeed, often in your weakest moments, you can feel his presence more strongly. He is with you, He is your Father! #Angelus

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Eucharist calls us to love God before everything & our brothers & sisters. This Bread is the Sacrament par excellence of love. Christ offers Himself and breaks Himself for us, & asks us to do likewise, so that our life might become bread that feeds our brothers and sisters.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The future of the human family in a globalized world is along the path of fraternity and social friendship. #NotAlone
