Which Pope Said It?
The earth, in fact, can produce enough to
nourish all its inhabitants, on the
condition that the rich countries do not
keep for themselves what belongs to all.
John Paul II ~ Benedict XVI ~ Francis

nourish all its inhabitants, on the
condition that the rich countries do not
keep for themselves what belongs to all.
Which Pope Said It?
Those who are more influential because
they have greater share of goods and
common services should feel responsible
for the weaker and be ready to share with
them all they possess.

Which Pope Said It?
The socioeconomic crisis and the consequent
increase in poverty has its roots in policies inspired
by forms of neoliberalism that regard profits and
market laws as absolute parameters, to the
detriment of the dignity of persons and peoples.

Why a Workshop on
Pope Francis?
From the Communications
Perspective

The Beginning

The Beginning
Before the bishop
blesses his people,
he asks that you
pray to the Lord to
bless me, the
prayer of the people
for the blessing of
their bishop, he
said bowing his head
and clasping his
hands.

May God forgive
you
for what you have
done.

The Challenge
How can we incorporate the message of Pope
Francis into our communications?
How can the message of Pope Francis allow our
agency to connect with our stakeholders in a
deeper way, especially with those who may be
able to provide time, talent, and/or treasure?
Is using Pope Francis OK?
Let Me Count the Ways
Social Media
Biannual Newsletters
Annual Reports
Community Presentations
Website
And More.
The Result?
Impact on Agency
Operations &
Activities?
a church that is poor and for the Poor
The Messenger
Consistent focus On the Poor and Poverty
This sounds familiar:

Catholic Charities bridges missionary
activity of Church into the world.
Be it helping people meet their most basic needs or advocating for
social change to reduce poverty, our Catholic values, teachings, and
traditions provide the foundation for the work our agencies do in
communities across the country.

Believing in the presence of God in our midst, we proclaim the
sanctity of human life and the dignity of the person by sharing in the
mission of Jesus given to the Church.

To this end, Catholic Charities works with individuals, families and
communities to help them meet their need, address their issues,
eliminate oppression, and build a just and compassionate society.
