Francis has been Pope for three months now. The other day my
friend from Argentina, Brother Ricardo, said, “you have to see Francis speaking
to really understand him.” I agree. While Pope Benedict is fascinating to read,
Pope Francis is fascinating to watch.
Last week Francis met with thousands of children from
Jesuits schools in Italy and Albania. At the beginning of his talk, he put
aside the speech and asked the children if they wanted to ask him any
questions. What followed is Francis at his best. I did a simultaneous – and
rough – translation. Please go to www.cblstones.com
to see the video. It’s too big for me to send with this email. The questions
the children ask are precious, and Francis’ answers are filled with wisdom.
Enjoy!
God bless,
Brother Kevin
