“To knock” is to ask for and to offer the gifts we have received to our brothers and sisters with a chaste heart, striving to love everyone with respect and generosity. #JubileeOfConsecratedLife

“To seek” is to open oneself, through obedience, to discovering each day the path we must take on the journey towards holiness, following God’s plans. 2/3

“Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you” (Lk 11:9). “To ask,” in fact, is to recognize, through poverty, that everything is a gift from the Lord and to give thanks for it. 1/3

Doing the work of a journalist can never be considered a crime, but it is a right that must be protected. Free access to information is a pillar that upholds the edifice of our societies, and for this reason, we are called to defend and guarantee it.

The Risen Lord walks alongside each of us, as we journey every day. With infinite care, he asks to let Him warm our hearts. He waits patiently for the moment when our eyes will open to see His friendly face, so He can transform our resignation into hope. #GeneralAudience

However distant, lost or unworthy we may feel, there is no distance that can extinguish the power of God’s love. #GeneralAudience

Christ’s resurrection teaches us that no story is ever so marked by disappointment or sin that it cannot be visited by hope. No fall is definitive, no night is eternal, no wound is destined to bleed forever. 1/

We will celebrate the next World Youth Day on 23 November, Solemnity of Christ the King, under the theme: “You also are my witnesses, because you have been with me” (Jn 15:27). As pilgrims of hope and by the power of the Holy Spirit, let us prepare ourselves to become courageous witnesses to Christ.

This October, as we contemplate with Mary the mysteries of Christ our Savior, let us deepen our prayer for peace, which should become concrete solidarity with people tormented by war. I thank the many children around the world who are praying the #HolyRosary for this intention.

I ask all those in positions of responsibility to commit themselves to this path, to bring about a ceasefire and to release the hostages. Let us #PrayTogether so that the ongoing efforts may put an end to the war and lead us towards a just and lasting peace.

I continue to be saddened by the immense suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza. In recent hours, in the dramatic situation in the Middle East, some significant steps forward have been taken in peace negotiations, which I hope will achieve the desired results as soon as possible. 1/

I express my concern about the rise of antisemitic hatred in the world, as unfortunately we saw with the terrorist attack in Manchester a few days ago.

No one should be forced to flee, nor exploited or mistreated because of their situation as foreigners or people in need! Human dignity must always come first!

I express my closeness to the dear Filipino people, and in particular I pray for those who are most severely affected by the consequences of the earthquake. Faced with any danger, let us remain united and supportive in our trust in God and in the intercession of our Blessed Mother.

We are to remain without fleeing to the comforts of our individualism; to remain so as to look upon those who arrive from lands that are distant and violent; to remain and open our arms and hearts to them, welcoming them as brothers and sisters, and being for them a presence of consolation and hope.

...of the missions are no longer geographical, because poverty, suffering and the desire for a greater hope have made their way to us. Mission is not so much about “departing”, but instead “remaining” in order to proclaim Christ through hospitality and welcome, compassion and solidarity. 2/3

Brothers and sisters, today a new missionary age opens up in the history of the Church. If for a long time we have associated with mission the word “depart”, the going out to distant lands that did not know the Gospel or were experiencing poverty, today the frontiers... 1/3

Today we celebrate the Jubilee of the Missions and of Migrants. It is a wonderful opportunity to rekindle in ourselves the awareness of our missionary vocation, which arises from the desire to bring the consolation of the Gospel to everyone, especially those who are experiencing painful situations.

Faith does not impose itself by means of power and in extraordinary ways. Indeed, it is enough to have faith the size of a mustard seed in order to do unimaginable things (cf. Lk 17:6), because it carries within it the strength of God’s love that opens the way to salvation. #GospelOfTheDay

Only a contemplative gaze can change our relationship with creation and bring us out of the ecological crisis brought on by the breakdown of our relationship with God, with our neighbors, and with the earth that is the effect of sin. #SeasonOfCreation

With infinite love, God has created all things and given them life. That is why Saint Francis of Assisi could call every creature his brother, sister, and mother. 1/

When we allow material possessions to rule over us, we can fall into spiritual sadness. When we choose God, however, we choose hope and a life of forgiveness and mercy. #JubileeAudience
