                    [Summary] => 
Pope Francis says, in his Apostolic Exhortations, that income inequality is the root of social ills. Unfortunately, while the world – including the very rich – praise him for his charisma and simplicity, they do not take his message seriously. As the Pope said, we must think and feel but we must also “do.”.

Now that Pope Francis is back in Rome, we are left to reflect and act on the meaning of his visit, for us and for God's people. For sure, those touched by the Pope have their favorite moments and messages to remember him by.

                    [Summary] => 
Pope Francis says, in his Apostolic Exhortations, that income inequality is the root of social ills. Unfortunately, while the world – including the very rich – praise him for his charisma and simplicity, they do not take his message seriously. As the Pope said, we must think and feel but we must also “do.”.
