"Missionary of Mercy" Fr. Panneer Selvam, part 2
This year’s Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season have taken on a special connotation and colour, occurring during the current Jubilee Year of Mercy. Pope Francis marked the beginning of the Church's Lenten journey by sending out several hundred religious and diocesan priests from around the world as "Missionaries of Mercy" to their local churches and communities. At the Feb. 10 Ash Wednesday Mass in Rome’s St. Peter’s Basilica, the Pope officially commissioned 762 priests with the task, empowering them to forgive even the sins that are reserved for the Holy See to pardon. The original plan of the Holy Father was to have just 800 Missionaries of Mercy. But with overwhelming requests from around the world, he ended up choosing over 1,000. Of these, 762 were specially invited to the Vatican for the official ceremony.
Watykan w ONZ: sposoby zwalczania terroryzmu
Zwierzchnicy wszystkich religii i wyznań winni połączyć wysiłki w zwalczaniu wszelkich form fundamentalistycznych ideologii, prowadzących do nienawiści. Stwierdził to stały obserwator Stolicy Apostolskiej przy Organizacji Narodów Zjednoczonych. Abp Bernardito Auza wystąpił 5 października w Nowym Jorku podczas 71. sesji Zgromadzenia Ogólnego ONZ na spotkaniu poświęconemu sposobom zwalczania terroryzmu. Przypomniał tam przekonanie Papieża Franciszka, że „gdy narusza się sprawiedliwość i dobro wspólne, wówczas zawsze pojawia się przemoc”.
Archbishop Henryk Hoser: We should not be worried about Medjugorje!
“If Marian devotion has flourished in Medjugorje, if such multitudes arrive there, it is therefore a place where veneration will continue, since Our Lady can be venerated everywhere, especially in those locations where this veneration is so fruitful, as we hear it has been from so many testimonies.”
