4th of july pope

by Brian Flagg

I’m gonna celebrate by attending the 5:30 mass at Santa Cruz.

I’m gonna give thanks and praise that I’m part of a church who’s head guy, the Holy Father, Pope Francis, actually talks and acts like Jesus or one of the prophets!

See the article in today’s Star at: http://tucson.com/news/national/govt-and-politics/heeding-francis-iowa-catholic-leaders-to-pressure-field/article_3c51f00f-e786-51f0-b21b-08a98bb8adeb.html

Yesterday in Iowa, Bishop Richard Pates of Des Moines implored presidential candidates to “take up Pope Francis’ call for ‘profound political courage’ by focusing their campaigns as much on improving the environment and income inequality as they have on opposing gay marriage and abortion in past elections.”

climate pope

Francis’ June encyclical “called for a ‘sweeping revolution’ to correct a ‘structurally perverse’ economic system that allows the rich to exploit the poor and has turned the Earth into an ‘immense pile of filth.'”

The article pointed out how Francis has urged church leaders to talk less about abortion and gay marriage and more about mercy and compassion…

Kinda like Jesus would do!

Voy a celebrar asistiendo a misa a las 5:30 a Santa Cruz.

¡Daré gracias y alabanzas que soy un miembro mas de una iglesia que tiene un gran líder como el Papa Francisco!

El esta llamando a los políticos a tener “animo profundo” para enfocar sus campañas presidenciales mas en la pobreza y el medio ambiente que en el aborto y matrimonios del mismo sexo.

El dijo que necesitamos una revolución para cambiar el sistema económico y proteger la tierra.

El Papa quiere que todos nosotros tengamos mas misericordia y compasión…

¡Como Jesús diría!
