A few lines from Pope Francis's sermon

Cherish and protect one another and our environment

Caring, protecting demands goodness.

We must not be afraid of goodness, of tenderness.

Never forget authentic power is service.

The pope must be inspired by the lowly. He must open his arms to all, especially the poorest, the weakest, the least important, the stranger, the sick, those in prison.

Only those who serve in love are able to protect.

The hope we bring is against the horizon of God.

Let us protect with love all that God has given us.

I ask you to pray for me
