My Pope Philippines - March 2019

この問題で

In time for the 40 days of Lent, we’ve come up with a My Pope issue that will serve as Your Own Personal Retreat no matter where you are.

All you have to do is flip through these pages.
We talk about the benefits of unplugging (page 9), show you the Pope’s favorite spots for prayer (page 20), point out where you can find peace and calm in the city (page 28), and help you bring meaning to the season with the themes in Your Lenten Guide (page 26), and the real-life reflections in Your Holy Week Companion (page 28). And if there is one voice in particular we wish you’d drown out, it’s that of your inner worrywart (more on this on page 42). St. John the Beloved shows us what it means to be a true friend (page 52), while actress Jodi Sta. Maria talks about her inspiring visit to the Holy Land (page 10).

We hope this issue helps you see that underneath the flash and pizzazz that can distract you from your problems, lies a Voice that will bring you true purpose and joy.

My Pope Philippines Magazine Description:

My Pope Philippines is an adapted English version of Italian magazine, Il Mio Papa, dedicated entirely to Pope Francis.
