(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis on Thursday warned Christians against the temptation of a show or entertainment religion that constantly seeks novelty and revelations, comparing it to fireworks that provide us with a fleeting brightness before dying. His comments came during his Mass celebrated on Thursday morning at the Santa Marta residence.The Pope’s reflections during his homily were inspired by the day’s reading about Jesus’ reply to the Pharisees’ question on when the Kingdom of God would come and he stressed how Christians must guard hope every day whilst waiting for the fullness of the Kingdom. Noting that Jesus told the Pharisees “the Kingdom of God is among you,” Pope Francis compared it to a small seed that is planted and grows on its own over time.

(Vatican Radio) Millions of newborns die every year of preventable causes. In 2015, 2.7 billion newborns died within one month of their births and three-fourths of them within the first week of life. There were an equal amount of stillborn babies, leaving families with the grief of mourning a child.

Officials are present in Rome to attend the Justice and Peace Conference on Maternal and Child health and also the Rare and Neglected Tropical Diseases Co...

Two students consistently hook up with one another – and typically, only each other – for weeks, months, even years,” Fessler wrote.“Yet ...
