Climate change can be faced with a renewed sense of shared responsibility for our world, and an effective solidarity based on justice, a sense of our common destiny and a recognition of the unity of our human family in God’s plan for the world. #Faiths4COP26

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We have severely harmed the Earth, our common home. Yet we have reasons for hope. The effects of the present imbalance can only be reduced by our decisive action, here and now. #SeasonofCreation #OzoneDay

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Education is one of the most effective ways of making our world and history more human. Education is above all a matter of love and responsibility handed down from one generation to another. #WorldLiteracyDay

In these days of being hospitalized, I have experienced how important good health care is, accessible to all. This precious benefit must not be lost which needs everyone's contribution.

The path indicated by Saint Paul in his Letter to the Galatians is the path of meek and obedient trust, in the certainty that the Holy Spirit works in the Church in every age. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Technology based on the use of highly polluting fossil fuels needs to be replaced without delay. There is reason to hope that humanity at the dawn of the 21st century will be remembered for having generously shouldered its grave responsibilities. #LaudatoSiWeek

Let us pray constantly that the Israelis and Palestinians may find the path of dialogue and forgiveness. Let us pray for the victims, in particular for the children; let us pray for peace.

Starting today through Saturday, we are giving residents who get vaccinated 2 free tickets to the Aquarium of the Pacific. We are going to do everything we can to get folks healthy and vaccinated. No appointment needed. 🐋🦑🐠

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

God saves with love, not with force; offering Himself, not imposing Himself.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Loving contemplation, typical of the most intimate #prayer, does not need many words. A gaze is enough. It is enough to be convinced that our life is surrounded by an immense and faithful love that nothing can ever separate us from. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Christian journey begins from the grace of receiving mercy. If we trust in our own abilities, in the efficiency of our structures and projects, we will not go far. Only if we accept the love of God, will we be able to offer something new to the world.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We have broken the bonds of our relationship with the Creator, with our fellow human beings, and with the rest of creation. We need to heal the damaged relationships that are essential to supporting us and the entire fabric of life. #EarthDay

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Sadly, in this world, with all its highly developed technology, great numbers of children continue to live in inhuman situations, exploited, maltreated, enslaved, refugees. Today, in acknowledging this, we feel shame before God, before God who became a child. #EndChildSlavery

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

In the midst of the contradictions and perplexities we must confront each day, the din of so many words and opinions, there is the quiet voice of the Risen Lord who keeps saying to us: “Peace be with you!”
