Papal Tweets
- “The habit of reviewing one’s own life forms the outlook, sharpens it, enables it to notice the small miracles that the good Lord accomplishes for us every day. #Discernment #GeneralAudience” @Pontifex, 19 October 2022
- “Let us #PrayTogether for all those who have lost their lives due to the violent flooding that has hit #Nigeria, and for all those affected by this devastating calamity. May our solidarity, and the support of the international community, not be lacking.” @Pontifex, 19 October 2022
- “Let us #PrayTogether for missionaries who, sent to different parts of the world, write a story of love in the service of the Gospel with their own lives. #OctoberMissionary” @Pontifex, 20 October 2022
- “Our communities are also called to go out to the various types of “boundaries” there might be, to offer hope to those stationed on the existential peripheries, who have not yet experienced, or have lost, the strength and the light that comes with meeting Christ #OctoberMissionary” @Pontifex, 21 October 2022
- “Together with Saint #JohnPaulII, today let us entrust to the Mother of God the most difficult cases, harmonizing ourselves under her gaze by praying the #HolyRosary.” @Pontifex, 22 October 2022
- “I have registered for World Youth Day, which will take place in Lisbon in August 2023
Dear young people, I invite you to register for #lisboa2023 to rediscover the joy of the fraternal embrace between peoples. @jmj_pt @laityfamilylife Image” @Pontifex, 23 October 2022 - “I follow the persistent situation of conflict in Ethiopia with trepidation. May the efforts of the parties for dialogue lead to a genuine path of reconciliation. May our prayers, our solidarity and the necessary humanitarian aid not fail our Ethiopian brothers and sisters.” @Pontifex, 23 October 2022
- “Today is World Missionary Day, on the theme: “You shall be my witnesses”. I encourage everyone to support missionaries with prayer and concrete solidarity, so that they may continue their work of evangelization and human promotion.” @Pontifex, 23 October 2022
- “The pharisee and the publican of #TodaysGospel (Lk 18:9–14) concern us closely. Thinking of them, let us look at ourselves: let us confirm whether, in us, as in the pharisee, there is the conviction of one’s own righteousness that leads us to despise others.” @Pontifex, 23 October 2022
- “Let us beware of narcissism and exhibitionism, based on vainglory, that lead even us Christians always to have the word “I” on our lips: “I have done this, I said it, I understood it”… Where there is too much “I”, there is too little God. #Angelus” @Pontifex, 23 October 2022
- “Tomorrow, Tuesday 25 October, I will go to the Colosseum to pray for peace in Ukraine and in the world, together with representatives of the Christian Churches and Communities and world religions, gathered in Rome for the “Cry of Peace” meeting. #PrayTogether” @Pontifex, 24 October 2022
- “Prayer is that quiet source of strength which brings #peace and disarms hate-filled hearts.” @Pontifex, 25 October 2022
- “The plea for #peace cannot be suppressed: it rises from the hearts of mothers; it is deeply etched on the faces of refugees, displaced families, the wounded and the dying. And this silent plea rises up to heaven.” @Pontifex, 25 October 2022
