GREEN INFERNO: CASTING THE CANNIBALS

How do you teach an Amazon tribe, who has no idea what a movie is to act like angry savage cannibals? Eli Roth’s solution: Make them watch Cannibal Holocaust. From director Eli Roth, the horror mastermind behind some of the scariest movies of all time such as Cabin Fever and the blockbuster Hostel franchise, comes GREEN INFERNO, a terrifying new film about a group of college students who take their humanitarian protest to the Amazon jungle, only to be taken prisoner by the indigenous tribe they came to save.

Full Text of the Homily of Pope Francis Given at the Manila Cathedral

“Do you love me? [the crowd answers yes and Pope Francis laughingly said, "Thank you very much" as the crowd applauded and he explained that he was quoting Jesus' words] said the Lord.

These words remind us of something essential. All pastoral ministry is born of love. All consecrated life is a sign of Christ’s reconciling love. Like Saint Therese, in the variety of our vocations, each of us is called, in some way, to be love in the heart of the Church.I greet all of you with great affection. And I ask you to bring my affection to all your elderly and infirm brothers and sisters, and to all those who cannot join us today.
