POPE FRANCIS’ LEGACY: LGBTQ Support, 2013 Foot-Washing, Clergy Apologies & Church Reform [Video]

POPE FRANCIS’ LEGACY: LGBTQ Support, 2013 Foot-Washing, Clergy Apologies & Church Reform

Pope Francis will be remembered as one of the most transformative figures in modern Church history. From washing the feet of Muslim prisoners to declaring homosexuality "not a crime," he shattered centuries of convention. Francis stood with the marginalized, lived humbly, and redefined papal leadership. He demanded accountability for clergy abuse, apologized to Indigenous communities, and led global reforms. A voice of compassion in a rigid institution, Pope Francis broke walls—and built bridges. His legacy lives on in every act of inclusion, humility, and courage. #PopeFrancis #CatholicChurch #FaithAndChange #LGBTQ #VaticanReform #ChurchHistory #BreakingTradition #HolyThursday #ManOfTheYear #GlobalFaith #FrancisLegacy #SpiritualReform #Inclusion #ChildAbuseAccountability #JesuitPope #Vatican #ReligionNews #HumanDignity #PapalReform #Christianity #ReligiousLeadership #Forgiveness #ClergyAbuse #VaticanSummit #HistoricPope #PapalLegacy #SocialJustice #HumbleLeadership #ChurchAndChange #PopeOfThePeople #PopeFrancis2025 Also Read Paris Mourns Pope Francis: Eiffel Tower To Go Dark In Memory Of Pontiff :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/paris-mourns-pope-francis-eiffel-tower-to-go-dark-in-memory-of-pontiff-4129893.html?ref=DMDesc Pope Francis Net Worth: Catholic Spiritual Leader's Simple Lifestyle, How Much He Used To Donate From Salary :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pope-francis-net-worth-catholic-spiritual-leaders-simple-lifestyle-how-much-he-used-to-donate-fro-4129709.html?ref=DMDesc Pope Francis Remembered: 10 Lesser-Known Facts About The First Jesuit Pope :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pope-francis-remembered-10-lesser-known-facts-about-the-first-jesuit-pope-4129701.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.408~

'Russia To Keep All Ukranian Territories': NATO & EU Horrified As Trump Sides With Putin In War [Video]

'Russia To Keep All Ukranian Territories': NATO & EU Horrified As Trump Sides With Putin In War

In a dramatic move to end two years of bloodshed, U.S. officials shared a proposed ceasefire plan during closed-door talks in Paris. The deal would freeze the Russia-Ukraine war in place, allowing Moscow to keep occupied territories—for now. Ukraine’s NATO aspirations would be paused, and sanctions on Russia could be gradually lifted if peace holds. In return, Russia must end all military operations. The U.S. plan includes peacekeeping forces, ceasefire monitors, and postwar security guarantees for Ukraine. But critics say the cost of peace may be territorial compromise. #Ukraine #Russia #USCeasefirePlan #RussiaUkraineWar #Ceasefire #PeaceDeal #UkraineWar #RussiaNews #ISWMap #Crimea #Donetsk #Luhansk #Geopolitics #Biden #Putin #NATO #SecurityGuarantees #FrozenConflict #TerritorialDispute #USForeignPolicy #UkrainePeace #ParisTalks #RussiaSanctions #CeasefireMonitoring #UkraineConflict #PostWarEurope #UkraineBorders #OccupiedTerritories #RussiaKeepsLand #PeaceAtWhatCost Also Read Preparations Underway For Vladimir Putin’s India Visit: Russian FM Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/preparations-underway-for-vladimir-putin-s-india-visit-russian-fm-lavrov-4106621.html?ref=DMDesc Diplomatic Breakthrough: Russia and Ukraine Commit to Black Sea Maritime Safety :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/diplomatic-breakthrough-russia-and-ukraine-commit-to-black-sea-maritime-safety-4105123.html?ref=DMDesc What Makes Ukraine’s Minerals So Special?
