On Fraternity and Social Friendship Pope Francis’s third encyclical In Fratelli tutti, Pope Francis calls us to live out our Christian duty to see the face of Jesus in our neighbors, recognizing everyone we meet as a brother or sister. By fostering a genuine affection for all, we reaffirm the dignity of every human person created in the image and likeness of God. Throughout the eight chapters, Pope Francis challenges and inspires the faithful to respond “with a new vision of fraternity and social friendship that will not remain at the level of words.” Effect of the pandemic “The recent pandemic enabled us to recognize and appreciate once more all those around us who, in the midst of fear, responded by putting their lives on the line. We began to realize that our lives are interwoven with and sustained by ordinary people valiantly shaping the decisive events of our shared history… They understood that no one is saved alone.” (No. 54) Human friendship “A truly human and fraternal society will be capable of ensuring in an efficient and stable way that each of its members is accompanied at every stage of life. Not only by providing for their basic needs, but by enabling them to give the best of themselves, even though their performance may be less than optimum, their pace slow or their efficiency limited.” (No. 110) Exclusive to the OSV edition Discussion questions, perfect for group or individual study Laudato Si': On Care for Our Common Home Amoris Laetitia: On Love in the Family Prayer: The Breath of New Life Why Are You Afraid?
