About this listen
Did you know that "hope" is such an important concept in recent years that not only Pope Francis but also Pope Benedict XVI and Pope John Paul II wrote inspiring words about it? Fr. Chuck unknowingly pays an end-of-life homage to Pope Francis by quoting extensively from his announcement of the current Jubilee Year of Hope only a few hours before Pope Francis' death early on Monday of Easter Week. May we be not just pilgrims but also proclaimers of hope.
Pope Francis's "Spes Non Confundit", 2024
Pope Benedict XVI's "Spe Salvi", 2007.
Pope John Paul II's "Crossing the Threshold of Hope", 1994
