Pope Francis & His Ignatian Background
By: Meeri Kangas
Synod as a Journey
His Role as Pope
Consolation & Desolation
The Church Itself
On nourishing the flock and welcoming the lost sheep:
"I made a mistake here. I said welcome: [rather] to go out and find them.”
"there were moments of running fast, wanting to conquer time and reach the goal as soon as possible; other moments of fatigue, as if wanting to say ‘enough’.”
"listening to the testimony of true pastors, who wisely carry in their hearts the joys and the tears of their faithful people.”
“since it is a journey of human beings” included “moments of desolation, of tensions and temptations.”
Starting with
Gratitude & Grace
Potential Temptations
"It is the Church that is not afraid to eat and drink with prostitutes and publicans.”
"I will keep you in prayer asking the Lord to reward you with the abundance of His gifts of grace."
"With a heart full of appreciation and gratitude I want to thank, along with you, the Lord who has accompanied and guided us in the past days, with the light of the Holy Spirit."
Moving Forward
The temptation “to bow down to a worldly spirit instead of purifying it and bending it to the Spirit of God.”
“the temptation to come down off the Cross, to please the people, and not stay there, in order to fulfill the will of the Father.”
"now we still have one year to mature, with true spiritual discernment, the proposed ideas and to find concrete solutions to so many difficulties and innumerable challenges that families must confront; to give answers to the many discouragements that surround and suffocate families.”
