Pope Francis had a Friday morning full of meetings. In addition to participating in an Italian Congress of birth rates, he also received several groups, like this one: the Higher Institute of Liturgy of Barcelona.
POPE FRANCIS
Man is for the liturgy, because he is for God, but a liturgy without this union of man with God is an absurdity.
The Pope also met with a delegation from Merrimack College in Massachusetts, an institution dedicated to young people.
POPE FRANCIS
It is important in educational work to direct students to that skill of discernment and choice—both ideally and practically extending the perimeters of classrooms.
This institute of the Augustinian Fathers was established during World War II to help young servicemen returning to the United States overcome trauma and reintegrate into society.
