Church Unity, Contemplative Life

Like Pope Francis? You’ll love Jesus.

Yes, we all strive to be doing the work of Jesus, but one guy has more eyes on him than any of us.  The Pope.  In case you missed this one, here is an article we found on the subject.  Click the title below to read the full thing.

“If Francis’s embrace of the disabled, his focus on the poor and his mercy for the sinner sound vaguely familiar, that’s because you’ve heard them before. From that Jesus guy.

Moved by Pope Francis’s embrace of the disfigured man? See Jesus touch and heal the leper in the Gospel of Matthew. Love Francis’s call to feed the hungry? “Whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me,” reads one of Jesus’s better-known lines. Remember Francis’s vision of the church as a “field hospital” for needy souls? Jesus healed people, body and soul, throughout His ministry.”
