Is His Holiness saying in his Angelus Message last Sunday – to us – his Loved children of Hungary :
Let it not be forgotten my children of Christ Jesus in Hungary – prior to my visiting you in September, the Blessed Advice – that Saint Pope John Paul 11 – gave YOU as a country Hungary – back when he visited you – in August 1991 :
“Be Mindful of the Blesssings – that Freedom – which You have Definitively Secured – means for your Future.
Cherish it – and make Good use of Your Liberty.”
It will be mindboggling – what Pope Francis – leaves US – in his sermon in Hero’s Square in September 2021.
