Who wouldn’t want a cup of Ice Cream?
Our hearts are melting at the moment at the unique display of affection by Pope Francis during the hot summer months in Italy. The temperatures recorded to be as high as 48.8C have been described as the highest ever in Europe.
News of wildfires also spread through some parts of Italy and Sardinia. The world has recently been facing temperature extremes due to the effect of global warming.
The Head of the Vatican arranged for ice creams enough for 15,000 prisoners to be sent to Regina Coeli and Rebibbia as a show of evangelism.
The Pope, known for his charitable unctions, such as providing succor discreetly for the less privileged in society and also providing COVID-19 testing facilities for those unable to afford it has us rethinking what charity should be like – quiet and unassuming!
