  • At his Angelus audience on Sunday, July 2, Pope Francis said that for a Christian, “the condition of the disciple requires that one’s relationship with the Master take precedence over all others.”
    The primary commitment to Christ applies to every baptized Christian, the Pope emphasized: “whether he be a lay man, a lay woman, a priest, a bishop.”
    The model of dedication to Christ, the Pope told his audience, is the Virgin Mary, who “felt in her own person what it means to love Jesus, detaching oneself from oneself.” He concluded with a prayer that Mary “may help us, with her maternal intercession, to be free and cheerful missionaries of the Gospel.”

  • "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi
