8 Years Since the Election of Pope Francis
In Your Presence - A podcast by Eric Nicolai
Categorie:
On March 13, 2013, Pope Francis was elected as the 266th successor of St. Peter, not so he could shine, and outdo everyone, but so that he could serve as Bishop of Rome, Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church, vicar of Christ, servant of the servants of God. What a responsibility. He is the visible foundation and source of unity, and as pastor of the entire Catholic Church. Cardinal Tagle, Archbishop of Manila, said that each new Pope is like a gift for the church, but that is slowly unwrapped, through years of ministry, writings, decrees, and images for the people of God. Fr. Eric Nicolai preaches this morning in Lyncroft after a month away due to Covid restrictions, asking how we have unwrapped the gift that is Pope Francis. Music: Adrian Berenguer, Fall (Album Multiplicity, 2017) Many images can be seen if you see this meditation on my YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/LX6YUg2fhnk
