Synopsis "Strong in the Face of Tribulation. Words During the Coronavirus Pandemic: The Church in Communion: a Sure Support in Time of Trial"

This volume is divided into three sections.First we find the words that Pope Francis pronounced from 9 March - 18 May 2020 as he sustained the entire ecclesial community in this time of trial. They are, more or less, the daily homilies during Mass at the Casa Santa Marta and the Angelus and Regina Coeli texts and a few other messages. Listening to his words helps us reflect and hope, it makes us feel in communion with and united to Peter.Then there is the first appendix which gathers together the indications given by the Church to continue to live and to receive the grace of the Lord, the gift of forgiveness and the Eucharist, the power of the Easter liturgies when we cannot participate physically in the Sacraments.Finally, the second appendix, where we find the prayers and supplications for difficult moments. They are texts that originate from various ecclesial contexts and diverse historical epochs. Thus they can be a further source of sharing for the universal Church. There are prayers for the sick, for the liberation from evil, to entrust ourselves confidently to the action of the Holy Spirit.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio, known worldwide as Pope Francis, was a prolific author in the genres of spirituality, theology, and social doctrine. Before his election as pontiff in 2013, he wrote works such as Meditations for Religious (1982) and On Self-Accusation (2005). During his papacy, he published fundamental texts like the encyclicals Lumen fidei (2013), Laudato si’ (2015), and Fratelli tutti (2020), as well as the apostolic exhortation Evangelii gaudium (2013). In 2024, he presented his autobiography Hope, considered the first written by a sitting Pope.

His most recent work, Hope Never Disappoints (2025), reflects his ongoing commitment to social and spiritual issues. Throughout his life, Bergoglio wrote more than 30 books, establishing himself as one of the most influential voices of the contemporary Church.
