Jesus is my Saviour

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I would like us to renew our hope that #peace is possible! From the Holy Sepulchre, the Church of the Resurrection, where this year #Easter is being celebrated by Catholics and Orthodox on the same day, may the light of peace radiate throughout the Holy Land and the entire world.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Christ has conquered sin and destroyed death, yet the power of His Resurrection is still being brought to fulfilment in our earthly history. Like a small seed of light, that fulfilment has been entrusted to us, to protect it and make it grow. #Easter

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

On the way of the cross, our faces, like yours, can at last become radiant and a source of blessing. You have impressed the memory of your face in our hearts as a pledge of your return, when you will recognize each of us at first glance. #ViaCrucis https://t.co/5L59qvEz4H

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us #PrayTogether for peace in martyred Ukraine, in the Middle East, in Sudan and South Sudan, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in Myanmar, tried by a recent earthquake, and in Haiti, where violence continues to rage, with two religious women killed several days ago.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Even if our past seems burdensome, complicated, and perhaps even ruined, we can always give it to God and set out anew on our journey. God is merciful, and He always waits for us!

You have continued to pray for me with so much patience and perseverance: thank you so much! I also pray for you. Let us #PrayTogether for #Peace, especially in martyred Ukraine, Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Myanmar, Sudan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers for my health. May God bless you and the Virgin protect you. Thank you.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I pray for you, too. I pray above all for #Peace. From here, war appears even more absurd. Let us pray for martyred Ukraine, Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Myanmar, Sudan, and Kivu.

[St. Padre Pio Quotes @PadrepioSaint]

† St. Padre Pio says:

“Do not fear the snares of satan ~•~ He is powerless against the children of God!’’

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I urge you to continue your apostolate with joy and to be a sign of a love that embraces everyone, as the #GospelOfTheDay suggests. May we transform evil into goodness and build a fraternal world. Do not be afraid to take risks for love!

🚨 BREAKING NEWS:

The Vatican has announced that Pope Francis’ condition has worsened, now diagnosed with a polymicrobial respiratory tract infection. Recent tests reveal a complex clinical picture, requiring an extended hospital stay for the 88-year-old Pontiff in Rome.

Regardless of personal opinions on his leadership, let us unite in prayer for his health and recovery, entrusting him to the mercy and care of Our Lord.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us ask the Lord to make our hearts humble and receptive to hear His Word and the cry of our brothers and sisters. May we recognise His presence in the weaknesses and wounds of our world. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We were not born to kill but to foster the growth of all peoples. Please ask for peace in your daily prayers. Let us #PrayTogether for #Peace and do penance on behalf of peace.

The Amazing Universe!

Jesus said:
“I would create the universe again just to hear you say you love me.’’

For World Mission Day in the Jubilee Year 2025, the central message of which is hope, I have chosen the motto: “Missionaries of Hope Among all Peoples”. https://t.co/DjL88SezzT

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Our heavenly Father wants us to accept one another as brothers and sisters of a single family and to work for a future together with others, not against them. True wealth lies in people and in good relationships with others. #HumanFraternity

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We must remember that young children observe, understand, and remember. They speak to us through their gazes and silences. Let us listen to them! https://t.co/OUUKHkCzeB

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Children who are denied their childhood are a silent cry denouncing the inequality of our economic system, the criminality of war, and the lack of medical care and education. These injustices weigh most heavily on all little ones and on the weakest.
