Pope: Sunday Angelus focuses on generosity, honesty


(Vatican Radio) Ahead of the traditional Angelus prayer with the faithful gathered in the courtyard of the Apostolic Palace at Castel Gandolfo on Sunday, Pope Benedict XVI reflected on the Sunday Gospel reading, this week taken from the 9th chapter of the Gospel according to St. Mark. Here are the Holy Father’s English-language remarks:

I welcome the English-speaking pilgrims here at Castel Gandolfo and in Rome! Dear friends, in today’s Gospel Jesus calls us to be not only open-hearted, but also firm in our opposition to what is dishonest or evil. May God grant us to be both generous to others and steadfast in living a life of purity and integrity. Upon you and your loved ones, I invoke the strength and peace of Christ our Lord!
