- “I extend my affection to the brothers and sisters of the Oriental Churches, Catholic and Orthodox, who celebrate the Nativity of the Lord today. To them, I wish them a Holy Christmas in the light of Christ our peace and our hope!” @Pontifex 7 January 2021
- “May the Child of Bethlehem help us, then, to be generous, supportive and helpful, especially towards those who are vulnerable, the sick, those unemployed or experiencing hardship.” @Pontifex 8 January 2021
- “Christmas is passing. But we must return to family life, to work, transformed, we must return glorifying and praising God for all that we have heard and seen. We must bring the good news to the world: Jesus is our saviour.” @Pontifex 9 January 2021
- “This is the great meaning of #Christmas: God becomes man so that we can become children of God.” @Pontifex 10 January 2021
- “The Father says to each one of us, as He did to Jesus: “You are my beloved Son”. We are God’s beloved children. This is our deepest identity. It is the first point of the spiritual life and we are reminded about it by Jesus first public gesture. #BaptismoftheLord” @Pontifex 10 January 2021
- “Today I could not celebrate Baptisms in the Sistine Chapel, as is customary. I am praying for all the children who at this time are receiving Baptism, the Christian identity, the grace of forgiveness and of redemption.” @Pontifex 10 January 2021
- “It is striking that the Lord spent most of his time on Earth living an ordinary life, without standing out. It is a beautiful message that reveals the greatness of daily life, the importance in God’s eyes of every gesture and moment of life, even the most simple.” @Pontifex 11 January 2021
- “A society is all the more human to the degree that it cares effectively for its most frail and suffering members, in a spirit of fraternal love. Message” @Pontifex 12 January 2021
- “We possess a great wealth that depends on what we are: the life we have received, the good within us, the indelible beauty God has given us by making us in his image. All these things make each of us precious in his eyes, each one of us is priceless and unique in history.” @Pontifex 12 January 2021
- “n difficult and dark moments let us find the courage to say: ”Blessed are you, Lord“. Let us praise the Lord: this will be so good for us. #Prayer #GeneralAudience” @Pontifex 13 January 2021
- “God overcomes the world’s evil by taking it upon himself. This is also how we can lift others up: not by judging, not by suggesting what to do, but by becoming neighbours, empathizing, sharing God’s love” @Pontifex 14 January 2021
- “In each act of service, in every work of #mercy we perform, God manifests Himself; God sets His gaze upon the world.” @Pontifex 15 January 2021
- “We are always on a journey in life. Let us choose the path of God! We will discover that there are no unexpected events, no uphill path, and no night that cannot be faced with Jesus.” @Pontifex 16 January 2021
- “The design that God has for each one of us is always a design of love. And the greatest joy for every
believer is to respond to that call, offering one’s entire being to the service of God and the brothers and sisters. #Angelus” @Pontifex 17 January 2021 - “Let us pray together for our brothers and sisters of Sulawesi, in Indonesia, hit by a strong earthquake. May the Lord console and sustain the efforts of all those who are engaged in bringing aid. Let us also pray for the victims of the airplane accident in Indonesia.” @Pontifex 17 January 2021
- “Today The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity begins. This year, the theme refers to Jesus’s counsel: “Abide in my love and you shall bear much fruit” (cf. Jn 15:5–9). #PrayTogether” @Pontifex 18 January 2021
- “Jesus invites us to abide in Him so as to bear much fruit (see Jn 15:5–9). Abiding in the Lord means finding the courage to step outside of ourselves to take care of others’ needs and give a Christian witness in the world. #Prayer #UnityOfChristians” @Pontifex 19 January 2021
- “After the Last Supper, Jesus prayed for His own, “that they may all be one” (Jn 17:21). This means that we are not able to achieve unity with our own strength. Above all, unity is a gift, it is a grace to be requested through #prayer. #ChristianUnity” @Pontifex 20 January 2021
- “The world’s faith depends on #ChristianUnity; in fact, the Lord asked that we be one “so the world might believe” (Jn 17:21). The world will not believe because of our convincing arguments, but because we have borne witness to that love that unites us and draws us near. #Prayer” @Pontifex 20 January 2021
