"The Pope selected a female and a Muslim. Why?"

Something about a shepherd who left his 99 sheep on the hillside, and went out to seek the one sheep that was lost?

“Something about a shepherd who left his 99 sheep on the hillside, and went out to seek the one sheep that was lost?”

Very well put. At our church’s (Prot.) Maundy Thursday service they talked about the foot washing as Jesus showing how to be the servant, and to serve others. And to “love one another as I have loved you.”

My mind thought of the Pope washing these imprisoned youth’s feet and recalled the story of “who is my neighbor” and the “Good Samaritan”. I think it is clear that the Pope is going to be working hard so that ALL can hear the Good News.
