I keep forgetting it’s winter in South America now. Cold and rain sounded so foreign to me.
That’s a lot of indulgences!
Very nice! And I bet they’re not all young.
I was at WYD (JMJ) in Madrid when BXVI was pope, and I would say that about 30% of the people attending were over 50, and they kept saying they wanted the Church they had known growing up and BXVI was bringing it to them.
I would suspect that it’s the same here in Brazil. Pope Francis is giving them the basic message, not blocked by leftwing garbage, and I bet this will make a profound change.
His name was Francis, he was a pontiff...
Obama ever do that?

Watching online the replaying of the WYD, Way of the Cross. Seeing Pope Francis in the Popemoble. He truly reaches out to the crowds and in a special way, to children and youth with challenges.
One of the many things wrong with the New Improved Catholic Church. A new religion has evolved over the past 50 years that requires bishops who are with it.
