Pope Francis: Living Lent with Passion, Encouragement and Daily Prayers

Since his election during Lent of 2013, Pope Francis has had a lot to say, and much of it has been a challenge to our ordinary ways of thinking and acting. His most challenging words, however, echo those of Jesus himself, the One who asks that we love God first and then love our neighbors as ourselves. Pope Francis' words in this booklet are a starting point for prayer. Each day includes a suggested Scripture reading, most often from the day's Mass.
