CWN Editor's Note: Meeting on February 20 with members of the Circle of Saint Peter—a group dedicated to charitable works with the poor in Rome—Pope Francis encouraged them to show “tenderness” toward those they helped, as opposed to sentimentalism. He contrasted their approach with the “culture of indifference and the throwaway culture” around them.
