Prancing with Francis
Pope Prance-us!
VATICAN CITY — Wishing for a year better than 2015, Pope
Francis on Friday called for an end to the “arrogance of the powerful”
that relegates the weak to the outskirts of society, and to the “false
neutrality” toward conflicts, hunger, and persecution that triggers
exoduses of refugees.
In his New Year’s homily, Francis emphasized
the need to “let ourselves be reborn, to overcome the indifference
which blocks solidarity, and to leave behind the false neutrality which
prevents sharing.”
After celebrating Mass, the pope came to the window of a Vatican
palazzo overlooking St. Peter’s Square to offer New Year’s wishes to a
crowd of tens of thousands of tourists and Romans cheering him from
