Pope Francis gives boost to popular movements in book preface 8/19/2019
Pope Francis writes a preface to a new book compiling 5 years of research into thousands of associations, which he says act as “a lever for profound social transformation”.
By Vatican News
“The Emergence of Popular Movements: Rerum Novarum of our time” is the title of a new book published in Spanish by the Vatican Publishing House (LEV) and prepared by the Pontifical Commission for Latin America.
The book explores the series of World Meetings held in the Americas since 2014, attended by thousands of representatives of popular movements.
Social transformation
In his preface, Pope Francis said people who live in the existential peripheries of society are not merely a sector of the population that must be reached by the Church. Rather, they are “a sprout that, like a mustard seed, will bear much fruit”. The Pope called popular movements that represent these people “a lever for profound social transformation”.
Pope Francis went on to say humanity is facing an epochal change characterized by fear, xenophobia, and racism.
Popular movements can counteract that tendency, he said, because they are “a source of moral energy to revitalize our democracies.”
“The antidote to populism and political showmanship lies in the efforts of organized citizens,” said the Pope, adding that they promote the experience of the “we” over the cult of the self.

This fucking devil worshiper is trying to start global communist revolution! WHEN is something going to be done about him?
We need this thing translated.... So we know who the enemy is!
I'm so tired of this idea that nobody can make it unless they move into our country! Latinos have a WHOLE continent to themselves, why can't they fix that up? They have more than a whole continent, they have South America, Central America and Mexico! But that's not enough they have live here too! I'm so sick of leftists bitching about white people are evil. If we're so evil how come everybody wants to live with us? Sick of it!
I am giving a testimony of how i become rich and famous today...i was
ReplyDeletedeeply strangled up by poverty and i had nobody to help me, and also i
search for help from different corners but to no avail... i see people
around me getting rich but to me i was so ashamed of my self so i met a man on my way he was very rich and he was a doctor so he told me something and i think over it though out the day so the next day i looked up and i keep repeating what he said to me. " if you want to get rich quick and be famous" you need to cross your heart and do what is in your mind so i tried all i could in other for me to do as he said so later on i told my fellow
friend about this same thing then my friend was interested in my
suggestions so i decided to look in the internet and i found an email
address of this great fraternity( illuminatiworldwide9@gmail.com) so we decided to contact them and unfortunately we did as they instruct us to do and later they told us to get some requirements and all the rest... so this
initiation took us just a week and later on the great fraternity gave us
$80,000,000.00 to start up our lives.... and now am testifying that if in
any case you want to join any great fraternity all you need to do is for
you to contact them because they are legitimate and they do as what they
instructed them to do okay so email them now at (illuminatiworldwide9@gmail.com) you can call as well on +2348106427180
