Holding Onto Hope: Fr. Francis' Message for Troubled Times
Hope does not abandon us. We abandon hope.
Ever feel like the world is tearing itself apart? In this thought-provoking episode of 'HOPECAST', Fr. Francis, the heart and soul behind Hope House Ministries, dives into the deep waters of today's crises. From the pandemic's heavy toll on mental health to the growing chasms of division in America, he doesn't shy away from the tough stuff. But rather than leaving us in despair, Fr. Francis offers a lifeline—hope.
He passionately talks about the urgent need for better mental health support in schools and the ongoing fight for social justice and human rights. The opioid epidemic also takes center stage as he calls for collective action and compassion. His message is clear: we must reclaim our humanity and come together, because as he says, 'Hope does not abandon us. We abandon hope'.
Tune in for a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, there's always a glimmer of light if we're willing to see it.
