THIS coming 2017 will be a momentous year for the political and moral landscape of the planet. There is a rising tide of political moral challenges facing humanity. Pope Francis will continue his historic reforms of the church and the curia bringing back the Gospel values and the true evangelization. He will continue challenging the world to work and cooperate for peace, justice and freedom. He will promote daily the Gospel message of truth, honesty, compassion, mercy and the spirit and values of human rights and the dignity of every individual and community.
