POPE FRANCIS Pastor to the World

In light of Pope Francis’ historic visit to the US in 2015, he has been called the “Pastor of the World.”

His popularity is undeniable. What is about this pon-tiff that has both Catholics & non-Catholics interested

in what he says & does?

Maybe it’s his daily homilies & weekly addresses, his off-the-cuff remarks & official writings, he talks to people where they are-in their brokenness, in their

hope, in their sorrow, and in their joy.

He recognizes that the Church isn’t a retreat for the righteous but “a field hospital after battle.” He says: “It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood

sugars! You are to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else. Heal the wounds, heal the wounds...And you have to start from the ground

up” (Interview with America magazine, September 20, 2013).

Maybe, in the end, the world recognizes Pope Francis as a pastor because he gives the world a much-needed glimpse of true love, of sacrificial love, of the love of

Jesus Christ. “The Lord wants his kingdom to be spread through gestures of love freely given. This is

how men and women recognized the first Christians as they went about spreading the message that over-flowed from them. ‘Freely you have received, freely

give.’ … The Church grows by attraction, by its wit-ness, not by proselytism” (Only Love Can Save Us,

Lenten Letter, February 22, 2012).

PAPA FRANCISCO Pastor del Mundo

Ante la histórica visita del Papa Francisco a los US en el otoño del 2015, su santidad ha sido llamado “Pastor de Mundo”. Su popularidad es innegable. Que tiene este pontifce que hace que tanto los católicos y los no cathóli-cos se interesen por lo que él dice y hace? Tal vez parte de la requesta está en que en sus discursos semanales y homilías diarias, en sus comentarios impro-visados y en sus escritos officiales, él les habla a las per-sonas desde donde ellas se encuentran: en sus quebran-tamientos, en sus esperanzas, en sus penas y en sus alegrías. Él reconoce que la Iglesia no es un refugio para los justos sino “un hospital de campaña tras una batalla”. Él dice: “Qué inútil es proguntarle a un herido se tiene altos el cholesterol o el azúcar! Hay que curarle las her-idas. Y a hablaremos luego del resto. Curar heridas, cu-rar heridas...Y hay que comenzar por lo más ele-mental” (Entrevista para La Cililtá Cattolica, 19 de Agosto del 2013. Es possible, que finalmente, el mundo reconozca al Papa Francisco como un pastor porque él le entrega al mundo en muy necesario destello del verdadero amor, del amor sacrificial, del amore de Jesucristo. “El Señor quiere que su Reino se propague mediante gestos de amor gratuito. Así los hombres reconocieron a los promeros cristianos portadores de un mensaje que los desbordaba. ‘Recibieron gratuitamente, den también gratuitamente’. … La Iglesia crece por atracción, por testimonio, no por proselitismo” (Mensaje Cuaresmal del Señor Ar-zobispo, 22 de febrero del 2012).

No Daily Mass:

We received a thank you letter from Food for the Poor, Inc.

June 24, 2019

On behalf of the poor living throughout the Caribbean and Latin America, I want to thank you for hosting Fr. Gus

Gordon and allowing us to share our ministry of serving children and families in need. Through your kindness and

compassion, the people of IMMACULATE CONCEPTION have heard the cries of those living in destitution and

put their faith into action.

In collaboration with Food for the Poor, your support has helped build more than 121,000 housing units for the des-

titute. In addition to housing, your support has helped to provide healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency re-

lief and micro-enterprise assistance to people in desperate need, and feed hundreds of thousands of hungry people

each day.

Servant of the poor,
