A few Thursday Thoughts from Pope Francis...

Pope Francis tells us that through the Eucharist, Jesus "enters in our hearts and in our flesh so that we may express in our lives the sacrament we received in faith, but if we leave the church gossiping, saying, 'Look at this one, look at that one,' with a loose tongue, the Mass has not entered into my heart. Why? Because I am not able to live the Christian witness. Every time I leave Mass, I must leave better than when I entered, with more life, with greater strength, with a greater desire to give Christian witness." (Pope Francis at his general audience in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican April 4)
