Pope Francis reminds us that he is our servant asking for our prayers, in silence before he proffers the Papal blessing on the crowds and millions watching him. He takes the simplicity of the St. Francis of Assisi and in a few moments reminds the world of our mission in the Church.
It is a day to be proud to be a Catholic and one where soon, we will be reminded again of the important of a life of simplicity, of service and of dedication to God in everyday life. Perhaps we can look forward to others noticing once again that through these good works what it really means to be a Catholic.
