Gen 2:7-9, 3:1-7; Rom 5:12-19; Mt 4:1-11In Greek mythology the sirens are creatures with the heads of beautiful women and the bodies of attractive birds.  They lived on an island and, with the irresistible charm of their song, they lured mariners to their destruction on the rocks surrounding their island.

To wear the shoes of others means to have a great capacity to comprehend, to understand the circumstance and difficult situations.”The Pope’s latest interview was published Feb. 28 in “Scarp de tenis,” a monthly periodical supported by Caritas Ambrosiana and Caritas Italiana. Based out of Milan, Italy, Caritas Ambrosiana interviewed Francis ahead of his planned trip to t...
