Pope Francis to the Portuguese: "Pray the Rosary Every Day"


"This month of Mary invites us to reinforce the honor and discipleship of Our Lady Daily. Say the Rosary every day! Let it be that the Virgin Mary occupies your own heart, trust her with what you are and have! And God will be all in all. So God bless you and your loved ones!"
This request was presented at the Jubilee Audience last Saturday, May 14 from an employee of the Pope only in Portuguese.

Actually kind of shocked to hear him say this, given his previous remark about counting Rosaries.

He shocks me every time he opens his mouth!

Every once in a while he accidentally sounds Catholic.

Winston Churchill's description of the iron curtain applies to this Pope "a mystery, wrapped in inside a riddle, wrapped inside an enigma"

ONLY in Portuguese? Why?

Tancred said...

Now it's in English, Presto!

And a ding, ding, ding to you and your ilk:

“Often times the obsessed, scrupulous, self-appointed, nostalgia-hankering virtual guardians of faith or of liturgical practices are very disturbed, broken and angry individuals, who never found a platform or pulpit in real life and so resort to the Internet and become trolling pontiffs and holy executioners!” Rosica said.
“In reality they are deeply troubled, sad and angry people,” he said. “We must pray for them, for their healing and conversion!”

At least faithful Catholic bloggers aren't drawing a salary while hypocritically despising and undermining that which and Who they claim to serve.

The same Fr Rosica who threatened to sue a blogger?

Tancred said...

Yep, he's a real low-life.

Another Francis publicity stunt.

....But no counting allowed.

When I read "...the obsessed, scrupulous, self-appointed...virtual guardians of faith...are very disturbed, broken and angry individuals, who...resort to the Internet and become trolling pontiffs and holy executioners" and who are "deeply troubled, sad and angry people" who need prayers, the first person of that description who comes to mind is Fr. Tom Rosica himself! Poor Fr. Tom. Maybe somebody will pray for him.

Rosica is so clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing, and the sad thing is that he's one of the obvious ones.

This is what happens when you make hairdressers and rag merchants into clergy.
