Pope Francis celebrates Mass for Centro Aletti
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis
on Friday evening said the path of the Christian does not tolerate climbers,
who show off and strut when following Jesus.
The Holy Father was speaking
during a Mass for members of the Centro Aletti, a center for study and research
attached to the mission of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) at the Pontifical
Oriental Institute.
During his homily the Pope
spoke of the joy of being worthy to suffer dishonor for the name of Jesus,
adding persecution and suffering are part of Christian witness.
The Mass took place in the
Vatican’s Redemptoris Mater Chapel, the mosaics of which were done by the
Director of the Centro Aletti, Father Marko Rupnik, SJ.
The Centro Aletti is mainly
for scholars and artists with a Christian perspective from Central and Eastern
Europe, with the aim of giving them an opportunity to meet with their Western
colleagues.
