Meeting Pope Francis Like a Prodigal Son

Deacon Antony Prabhu used the Parable of the Prodigal Son to share his own encounter with Pope Francis, and how he went from being not optimistic about his chances at a ballot to shaking the Holy Father's hand and kissing his ring. In the brief few seconds, what Deacon Antony saw was as a shepherd, a father, and a man of immense kindness and sacrifice, and above all, a disciple of Christ. -Novena Devotion by Rev. Antony Prabhu, C.Ss.R. (5 October 2024)
