Pope Francis in his
general audience Wednesday encouraged an open-door policy in
Catholic churches and institutions, and said the upcoming
Jubilee Year of Mercy is a chance to "cross the threshold of
God's mercy".
"The Jubilee means the great door of God's mercy, but also
the small doors of our churches, open to let in or often to let
out the Father imprisoned by our structures, by many things,"
Pope Francis said.
"The great door of God's mercy is a door that welcomes our
repentance, offering the grace of His forgiveness, the door is
generously open.
"If the door of God's mercy is always open, then the doors
of our churches, of our parishes, institutions, dioceses have to
be open, because that way everyone can bring out the mercy of
God," Pope Francis said.
