Papal Tweets
- “Let us ask the Lord for the light to really understand what is happening within us. #SantaMarta” @Pontifex 25 October 2019
- “In this #AmazonSynod we felt the need to place ourselves before the Lord, to put Him back at the centre, both personally and as the Church. Because we can only proclaim what we live.” @Pontifex 27 October 2019
- “In the #GospelOfToday, looking at the tax collector, we rediscover where to start: from the conviction that we, all of us, are in need of salvation. #AmazonSynod http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/homilies/2019/documents/papa-francesco_20191027_omelia-sinodovescovi-conclusione.html” @Pontifex 27 October 2019
- “In these last days of October, I invite you to pray the #HolyRosary for the mission of the Church today, especially for men and women missionaries who encounter the greatest difficulties. #MissionaryOctober” @Pontifex 28 October 2019
- “The love of God is expressed in the tender tears of Jesus. As He cried for Jerusalem, so He cries for each of us when we don’t allow ourselves to be loved. This is God’s tender love. #SantaMarta” @Pontifex 31 October 2019
- “The memory of the Saints leads us to raise our eyes to Heaven: not to forget the realities of the earth, but to face them with more courage and hope. #AllSaintsDay” @Pontifex 1 November 2019
- “Today we remember those who have walked before us, in the hope of meeting them, of reaching the place where we’ll find the love that created us and awaits us: the love of the Father. #AllSoulsDay” @Pontifex 2 November 2019
- “The #GospelOfTheDay (Lk 19:1–10) shows us that the merciful gaze of the Lord reaches us before we even realize that we need it to be saved.” @Pontifex 3 November 2019
- “Holiness is the fruit of God’s grace and of our free response to it. Holiness is a gift and a call.” @Pontifex 4 November 2019
- “We face this choice many times in our lives: do I accept the Lord’s invitation or close myself off in my interests, in my smallness? Let us ask the Lord for the grace always to accept the invitation to His feast, which is free. #SantaMarta” @Pontifex 5 November 2019
- “Video” @Pontifex 5 November 2019
- “Dear friends, in this month of November, we are invited to pray for the dead. Let us entrust our family members, friends and acquaintances to God, especially in the Eucharist, feeling them close to us in the spiritual company of the Church. #GeneralAudience” @Pontifex 6 November 2019
