Pope Francis is the 266th and current pope, his papacy having begun on 13 March 2013. He has said many memorable things, often about the importance of care of the poor and of faith being expressed in tangible actions. Here are a few of his insights…
- To ignore the poor is to despise God – Pope Francis
- The crucifix does not signify defeat or failure. It reveals to us the love that overcomes evil and sin – Pope Francis
- I prefer wrinkled families with wounds, with scars, but that continue going forward because these wounds, these scars, these wrinkles are the fruit of fidelity in a love that was not always easy. Love isn’t easy. It isn’t easy. No. But the most beautiful thing that a man and a woman can give each other is true love, for a lifetime – Pope Francis
- To be saints is not a privilege for the few, but a vocation for everyone – Pope Francis
As always, nice chatting…
