Learn how to heal hurts and celebrate the ties that bind with this month’s issue!

As Pope Francis once said, “In families, there are difficulties, but these difficulties are overcome with love. Hate doesn’t overcome any difficulty. Division of hearts doesn’t overcome any difficulty. Only love is capable of overcoming difficulties. Love is a festival. Love is joy. Love is to keep moving forward.” In line with this spirit, My Pope Philippines, your feel-good lifestyle magazine, launches its August 2019 family-themed issue. Readers will be inspired by the wise words Lolo Kiko has to say on family, along with the moving insights and stories that illustrate these words from personalities such as Armand del Rosario, RJ Ledesma, and more. We also put a spotlight on why Pope Francis values grandparents—and why he believes that parents should receive the Nobel Peace Prize! We even give you a glimpse into what made the Pope’s childhood a happy one—despite the fact that his family was simple and far from wealthy.

Aside from these heartwarming stories, the magazine also includes features that will encourage more harmonious relationships, and celebrate what makes families so loving and special. Readers will find helpful tips on the right way to say—and show—that you are sorry, a roadmap for dealing with the angsty teens in your life, and even the secret weapon for having a happy and blessed home. Not one to shy away from tricky situations, My Pope likewise tackles reader’s problems in our Q&A section, including how to cope when your family is being torn apart as they fight over inheritance. Furthermore, My Pope clues you in on the better way to have those all-important conversations you should be having with your adult siblings.

With articles on a public school teacher turned second mom, an architect whose affordable housing project has allowed former slum dwellers to dream big, and the wonder twins St. Benedict and his sister St Scholastica, this month’s My Pope is sure to be a source of inspiration, joy, and enlightenment for every member of the family.
