Morning Homilies

Each morning Pope Francis says Mass and offers a short homily for fellow residents and guests in the chapel of St. Martha's, the guesthouse where he has chosen to live. His homilies found in Morning Homilies were given from March 22 to July 26, 2013 and offer the opportunity for those not present to experience his lively discourse and capacity to engage listeners. The themes in Pope Francis' morning homilies include mercy and forgiveness, Jesus as Savior, the dangers of a church closed on itself, and the gospel as source of life and joy.
