I could not let the month of August goes, without first doing this fraternal tribute to Pope Francisco, which marked the World Youth Day (WYD), with his charisma, leading us all, catholics and non-believers to conclude that he really was a God messenger, to bring us to a reflection and meditation of the Gospel, in these difficult times for the church.
The people who was present in Rio de janeiro during the WYD, had a moment of peace, brotherhood and sharing, in spite of braving rain, cold, heat, infrastructure´s problems, as the city wasn´t prepared to receive so many pilgrims, over than 3.000.000 persons, the largest number of tourists already received by the city, at all times! They remained excited and happy for the big meeting with the Pope and his Christian message!

His simplicity and affection, won crowds, reviving the faith through the gospel. His example touched our hearts
feeding the flame of brotherly love.
I`m absolutely keen on Pope Francisco, his stripped actitudes and Speeches, as when he said:
"I DO NOT HAVE GOLD OR SILVER BUT BRING THE MOST PRECIOUS I WAS GIVEN – JESUS CHRIST".

His words are echoing in our souls, until now, as we remember when he said: “Do flourishing civilization
of love, showing with the life that is worth spending up by
great ideals.
Value the dignity of every human being!

He invited the youth to be missionaries and said: “ The Church needs you, your enthusiasm, creativity and joy!
A stripped
personality, had no fear to encounter with people and hugged,
smiled, cried and emotioned”.

POPE FRANCISCO IN A CEREMONY - "WASHING OF THE FEET"AND CALMLY, TAKING TEA ON THE STREET!

Pope
Francisco faced with tenderness and forced the arrogance of the System.
From his mouth, no words of condemnation but prophecy and courage.
The Pope of the people , with the people!
The
Catholic Church, actually needs to change. Why? A lot of
catholics are going out, growing the statistics of people abandoning the Church and professing no
religion, or closing
to the Evangelical or Pentecostal churches in Latin America.
At this
moment, he was very emotioned!
With educational
methodology, pointed us the three things
we have to remember forever:
1-The hope
in the love o God.
2- He made
us realize that we need to host God´s
Surprises.
3 – Be happy,
with signs of joy, witnessing Christs
salvation to all.
Finally, his words on “knocking” the door of your heart and take a coffee
with us, or when he asked us to put "water in the cooker beans", to a shared table, for me
were fantastic!
He invited
all of us, religions, Christianity, faithful and non faithful, to join in
what should be essential:
CARING FOR
THE POORER, WHO ARE HUNGRY AND SUFFERING!
Francis Pope said, during his homily at Casa Santa Marta (03/09/13) that in today's culture is very easy to have scientific and technical knowledge but many people think live in the light and live in darkness because they know not the light of Jesus.
