Publisher Description: O Cross of Christ is an original, new prayer composed by Pope Francis himself and recited by him on the occasion of Good Friday 2016. It guides all who pray it to recognize Jesus' cross in some of the most distressing circumstances of today's world -- modern-day martyrs, victims of war, unfaithful ministers, and more--as well as in the lives of people who do great good--consecrated men and women, families, volunteers, and others. |
Contributor Bio(s): Pope Francis: - Jorge Mario Bergoglio was the archbishop of Buenos Aires from 1998 until his election as pope in 2013. As pope, he has proclaimed a gospel of joy, peace, and care for the poor, while leading reforms within the Vatican and beyond. His spiritual and moral leadership has become widely respected well beyond the confines of the Catholic Church. |
