On Wednesday, January 13, 2021 (3.15 pm, Aula Álvaro del Portillo and in streaming), the Seminar on Fratelli tutti by Pope Francis was held on the theme: The common sonship of universal human fraternity.
The virtue of purity? Who talks about that nowadays?
This short book presents the topic to today's youth as a challenge to grow and mature into responsible and caring adults, capable of leading and helping others. The authors begin from the vantage of Jesus, who ministered to both young and old, and whose lessons are a call to holiness for us all.
The faith reaches the peripheries of the world by the attraction of love. That’s why Pope Francis has recommended that we all embark on a “revolution of tenderness”. Priests have a special role in this revolution, by loving and teaching others to love. They do so by the virtue of chastity, "a sign of purity in relationships and in the gift of self", as the "Ratio Fundamentalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis" (no. 21) has put it.
"El corazón del pesebre comienza a palpitar cuando, en Navidad, colocamos la imagen del Niño Jesús. Dios se presenta así, en un niño, para ser recibido en nuestros brazos. En la debilidad y en la fragilidad esconde su poder que todo lo crea y transforma".
(Papa Francisco, Admirabile signum, n. 8).
El Rector Magnífico y la Comunidad Académica de la Pontificia Universidad de la Santa Cruz formulan los deseos de una Santa Navidad y un feliz Año Nuevo 2021.
