Distant from the faith
In the latest Prayer video Pope dedicates urges all Christians to join him in praying for those who have strayed from the faith, providing hope to them through the witness of our joy and actions. He says “Let us never forget that our joy is Jesus Christ – his faithful and inexhaustible love,” while the video depicting a man in dark-colored clothing sitting on steps outside of a Church.
“When a Christian becomes sad, it means that he has distanced himself from Jesus,” he says, stressing that “we must not leave him alone!” Rather, “we should offer him Christian hope – with our words, yes, but more with our testimony, with our freedom, with our joy,” Francis says, as a second man, dressed in white, then walks out of the church and sits next to the man on the steps.
The video then shows several images of happy people, including a group smiling while receiving catechesis, youth dancing during World Youth Day and hands praying the rosary.
At the close of the video, the Pope makes his appeal, saying “let us pray that our brothers and sisters who have strayed from the faith, through our prayer and witness to the Gospel, may rediscover the beauty of the Christian life.”
His prayer videos first launched during the Jubilee of Mercy and are part of an initiative of the Jesuit-run global prayer network Apostleship of Prayer. They are filmed in collaboration with the Vatican Television Center and the Argentinian marketing association La Machi and produces one video a month.
