“The Church is a Field Hospital at the

A PLACE FOR EVERYONE
“The Church is called to be the house of the Father, with
doors always wide open. One concrete sign of such
openness is that our church doors should always be
open, so that if someone, moved by the Spirit, come
there looking for God, he or she will not find a closed
door. There are other doors that should not be closed
either. Everyone can share in some way in the life of
the Church: everyone can be part of the community, nor
should the doors of the sacraments be closed for simply
any reason. This is especially true of the sacrament
which is itself “the door”: Baptism. The Eucharist,
although it is the fullness of sacramental life, is not a
prize for the perfect but a powerful medicine and
nourishment for the weak. The convictions have
pastoral consequences that we are called to consider
with prudence and boldness. Frequently, we act as
arbiters of grace rather than its facilitators. But the
Church is not a tollhouse; it is the house of the Father,
where there is a place for everyone, with all their
problems.” --His Holiness, Pope Frances, The Joy of the
Gospel (Evangelii Gaudium)
