Evangelii gaudium and the essentials of faithSpeaking to around three thousand people gathered on Saturday afternoon in front of the shrine of Ta' Pinu on the Maltese island of Gozo, Pope Francis explored the essentials of the faith. Pope Francis did not repeat it only once, but seven times. And the heart of faith is our relationship with Jesus and the proclamation of His Gospel to the whole world.

This litmus test is precisely the welcome and gratuitous assistance offered to those who suffer.
