The Holy Father’s Reflection on the Great Commission

August 27, 2013 by Cross Catholic Blog

In his closing Mass for World Youth Day Rio, Pope Francis commissioned not only the Catholic youth of the world, but every Catholic.  He called each of us to be a missionary without borders. He referenced the Great Commission, when Jesus called us to “Go and make disciples of all nations,” and explained that “this is a command that the Lord entrusts to the whole church and that includes you.”

August 13, 2013 by Cross Catholic Blog

Immigration is a hot topic in Europe, just as it is here in the US.  I recently read about a case there that touched me.  The small Italian island of Lampedusa is just 70 miles from Tunisia in North Africa.  This tiny island has attracted impoverished Africans seeking access into Europe where they hope to find a better life.
