Love Found Again

In paragraph 296 of *Amoris Laetitia* we find these words from Pope Francis: ‘Two approaches run through the entire history of the Church: marginalisation and integration […]. The Church’s path, from the Council of Jerusalem onwards, is always that of Jesus: the path of mercy and inclusion […].

For true charity is always unmerited, unconditional and free!”
