Sharing the Gospel Means Embracing the Cross, Pope Francis Says at Chrism Mass

The Tablet April 1, 2021 By Cindy Wooden VATICAN CITY (CNS) Living and preaching the Gospel always involves embracing “the cross,” whether it be in the form of misunderstanding, hostility or outright persecution, Pope Francis told Rome priests gathered for the chrism Mass. In the life of Jesus and in the lives of his disciples today, “the hour of joyful proclamation, the hour of persecution and the hour of the cross go together,” the pontiff said at the Mass April 1 at the Altar of the Chair in St. Peter’s Basilica.
