Since I talked about Saint John Paul the Great and Pope Benedict yesterday, it’s only fair that I put Pope Francis in the limelight today.
Aleteia shared this wonderful video from Pope Francis’s General Audience a few days ago. One can’t help but recall how Jesus went to visit the daughter of Jairus. I pray that this girl will receive great blessings and healing.

According to Vatican Radio, Pope Francis said these priests will be “living signs of the Father’s readiness to welcome those in search of his pardon.”
From The Catholic Rose:
Jesus, meek and humble of heart, make our hearts like unto thine!
From Verily Magazine:
EWTN shared that on the plane to Cuba, Pope Francis offered a special blessing to Mother Angelica.
