In the Words of Pope Francis . .

October 26, 2015

The Viatorian Community joins with the Conference of Major Superiors of Men, in sharing the two major addresses made by Pope Francis during his visit in September to Washington.

“We find the articles engaging and stimulating,” says Eli McCarthy, executive director of the CMSM. “We want to pay particular attention to the address to Congress, in which the Pope lifted up Dorothy Day and Thomas Merton as figures to inspire and orient our social and political activity.”
