Anniversary of the election of Pope Francis: 13 March

March 13 will mark seven years since Buenos Aires archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio became Pope Francis.

Pray and give thanks for the life and work of Pope Francis.

You're invited to take a few minutes to meditate on one of his beautiful quotes below.

 

What zest life acquires when we allow ourselves to be filled by the love of God.

I am a sinner whom the Lord has looked upon.

God never tires of forgiving us: we are the ones who tire of seeking his mercy.

You cannot insult the faith of others.

We have to work harder to develop a profound theology of women within the church. The feminine genius is needed whenever we make important decisions.

Lord Jesus make us capable of loving as You love.
