Pope Francis @Pontifex

We are like little toddlers who try to walk, but keep falling, and need to be picked up each time by their father. It is the Father’s forgiveness that always sets us back on our feet. God’s forgiveness, #Confession, is the first step on our return journey to the Lord. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Jesus spoke of this hope when he announced his passion and death saying he would “be raised on the third day” (Mt 20:19). He was speaking of the future opened up by the Father’s mercy. Hoping with him and thanks to him means receiving from his open Heart the Father’s forgiveness. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

The Season of #Lenten calls us to place our faith and hope in the Lord, since only if we fix our gaze on the risen Christ will we be able to respond to the Apostle’s appeal, “Let us never grow tired of doing good” (Gal 6:9). — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Let us not forget the children who have had to flee and come to a foreign land: this is one of the fruits of war. Let us not forget them, and let us not forget the Ukrainian people. #PrayTogether — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Не забуваймо про дітей, які мусіли втікати і прибути до чужої землі: це однин із плодів війни. Не забуваймо про них, не забуваймо про український народ. #МолімосяРазом — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Не будем забывать о детях, которым пришлось бежать на чужую землю, - это один из плодов войны. Не будем забывать о них, не будем забывать об украинском народе. #МолимсяВместе — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

They are victims whose innocent blood cries to Heaven and implores: put an end to this war! Silence the weapons! Stop sowing death and destruction! #PrayTogether — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

: Це жертви, невинна кров яких взиває до неба та благає: нехай буде покладено край цій війні! Змусьте зброю замовкнути! Нехай більше не сіється смерть і руйнування! #МолімосяРазом — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Невинная кровь этих жертв взывает к Небесам и умоляет: да прекратится эта война! Да умолкнет оружие! Хватит сеять смерть и разрушение! #МолимсяВместе — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

The recent news from #Ukraine, reports new atrocities, like the massacre in Bucha: ever more horrendous cruelty done even against defenseless civilians, women and children. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Новини з #України засвідчують нові звірства, як от різанина в Бучі: дедалі жахливіші акти жорстокості, скоєні також проти цивільних, безборонних жінок і дітей. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Новости с Украины свидетельствуют о новых зверствах, таких как резня в Буче: всё более чудовищная жестокость, также в отношении беззащитных гражданских лиц, женщин и детей. #Украина — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

I chose the words "with unusual kindness" as the motto of my Journey to Malta because they indicate the path to follow so that the world might become more fraternal, more livable, and might be saved from a “shipwreck” that menaces all of us who are in the same boat. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Let us #PrayTogether for health care workers who serve the sick and the elderly, especially in the poorest countries. May they be adequately supported by governments and local communities. #PrayerIntention https://t.co/IOxYiQ57g0 — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

In this season of conversion, sustained by God’s grace and by the communion of the Church, let us not grow tired of doing good. The soil is prepared by fasting, watered by prayer and enriched by charity. #Lent — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Нужно плакать над могилами. Неужели нам безразлична молодежь? Мне горько оттого, что происходит сегодня. Мы ничему не учимся. Да смилуется над всеми нами Господь. Вина – на каждом из нас. #Мир #Украина — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

На могилах потрібно плакати. Молодь не береться до уваги? Я засмучений тим, що сьогодні відбувається. Ми не вчимося. Нехай же Господь буде милостивий з нами, з нами всіма. Всі ми винні! #Мир #Україна — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

We need to cry over their tombs. Don't our youth matter? I am grieved by what is happening today. We never learn. May the Lord have mercy on us, on all of us. Every one of us are guilty! #Peace #Ukraine — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Логика войны была снова навязана, потому что мы отвыкли мыслить согласно логике мира. Мы упрямы, мы влюблены в войны, в дух Каина. #Мир #Украина — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Знову нав’язалася логіка війни, бо ми вже більше не звикли мислити згідно з логікою миру. Ми вперті, ми закохані у війни, в дух Каїна. #Мир #Україна — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

The logic of war has imposed itself yet again because we are no longer used to thinking with the logic of peace. We are stubborn, we are in love with war, with the spirit of Cain. #Peace #Ukraine — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

I thank all those who worked hard to prepare this #ApostolicJourney and the citizens of #Malta for your welcome. I will remember the luminous face of Malta! You are a treasure in the Church and for the Church. Do not forget: the joy of the Church is to evangelize. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Pour out upon us your Holy Spirit and grant us a new heart capable of hearing the pleas of our brothers and sisters who have lost the warmth of their homes and homeland. Grant that we may give them hope through our humanitarian deeds. Amen. #PrayTogether — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Thousands of people have been forced to flee Ukraine because of war. Many others have also had to leave their own lands in Asia, Africa and the Americas. All of them are in my thoughts and prayers. #Apostolic Journey #Malta — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

We listen to the stifled plea of millions of migrants whose fundamental rights are violated, sadly at times with the complicity of the competent authorities. They are not statistics, but flesh and blood people with faces and dreams, dreams that are sometimes dashed. — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

To save ourselves from this shipwreck which brings the risk of sinking the ship of civilization, we must conduct ourselves with humanity, regarding people not merely as numbers, but for what they really are: brothers and sisters. #migrants #Apostolic Journey #Malta — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Let us respond to the challenge of migrants and refugees with humanity, lighting fires of fraternity around which people can warm themselves, get up again and rediscover hope. Let us strengthen the fabric of social friendship and the culture of encounter! — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Let us #PrayTogether for #peace, thinking of the humanitarian tragedy in war-torn #Ukraine, which continues to be bombarded. Let us not tire of praying and offering assistance to those who suffer! #ApostolicJourney #Malta — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

The Lord wants that we, his disciples, forgiven by Him, become tireless witnesses of reconciliation, of a God who always forgives and gives us the chance to live a new and different life under the banner of mercy. #ApostolicJourney #Malta — PolitiTweet.org

Pope Francis @Pontifex

Those who believe they are upholding the faith by pointing their finger at others may have a certain “religiosity”, but they have not embraced the spirit of the Gospel, for they disregard mercy, which is the heart of God. #GospelOfTheDay (Jn 8:1-11) — PolitiTweet.org
