Pope Francis sends a letter to the Archbishop of Mercedes
Luján ahead of the Feast Day of Our Lady of Luján.
By Vatican News
May 8 marks the Feast Day of Our Lady of Luján. Prior to
this date, Pope Francis wrote a letter to Archbishop Jorge Scheinig of
Luján. In it, the Pope assures the Archbishop that his “heart travels to Luján”
for this celebration.
In the letter dated 4 May, the Pope writes that he will be
there “spiritually” in Luján to visit Our Lady. There, he says, “I will look at
her once more and, once again, I will let her look at me with that motherly
gaze that renews you, takes care of you, gives you strength”.
The Pope adds that in doing so, he knows he will not be
alone, “but together with the holy, faithful People of God who love her so
much, a faithful and sinful people like me”.
Pope Francis then writes that he along with the faithful
will tell Our Lady of their “worries” and their “joys”.
Finally, the Pope writes that he will “ask her to take care
of us”. He added that “because I am a sinner, I will ask her to give us grace
to always ask for forgiveness, to not tire of asking for forgiveness... because
we know that Her Son never gets tired of forgiveing”.
