a Francis retreat

Jun 4, 2016

Yesterday in Rome Pope Francis preached a one-day three-session retreat for priests. You can see in the photo that he is completely at home in this role.

Many priests might miss this, so you might consider printing it and giving it to a priest you know with a friendly comment: “Father, I thought you might like a copy of Pope Francis’ retreat for priests”.
