Father James Kubicki joins Patrick to Honor Pope Francis
- What was he main focus of Pope Francis’ ministry
- (10:50) Perth -I'm a convert and was just talking to family members who are protestant. Defending the pope on his stances. I didn't know much about him and didn't look further until 4 months ago when I came back to the church. Today I saw an interview and it softened my heart and made me cry. He was for the people.
- Mary Lou - I remember hearing that when he was living in Argentina before coming Pope and throughout his papacy, he used to take the bus wherever he worked. Never took special cars, maid, chef, etc. Was with the poor. It profoundly influenced me so many ways in letting to ego and materialism.
(20:40) Break 1
- (27:45) Roland - I live in Metro Philadelphia. Was at world meeting of families. Was touched by his warmness. I'll never forget it. I served as a Spanish translator. To see everyone in such peace and love was a vision of heaven on earth.
- Mphasa - He touched my heart. His resilience. He was there for the people and there was so much Jesus in him. I will carry that on.
- (34:27) Barb - I think his work with Laudato Si was beautiful. It was a great opportunity to be ecumenical. It brought in a lot of people to the church and speaking to an issue that was relevant to them.
- Ray - My father passed away at the time the white smoke went up and that's why he's been a special figure for me.
