Ever wanted to be like someone else? Who? Would you change your name to theirs?The new pope chose the name Francis, in honour of Francis of Assisi, a follower of Jesus who chose to reject possessions and love the poor, sick, the outcasts and those of other religions. Can you pray the prayer he first prayed?‘Lord, make me a channel of your peace.where there is hatred, may I bring love, where there is wrong, the spirit of forgiveness, where there is discord, harmony, where there is error may I bring truth, where there is doubt, faith, where there is despair, hope, where there are shadows, light, where there is sadness, may I bring joy.’ In Jesus’ name. Amen.#GodsStoryNow #A_Pope_4_the-poor
