教宗方濟各在週二舉行彌撒，彌撒為榮休教宗本篤十六世的八十六歲生日奉獻。他講道的主題圍繞聖神：「每人都看來都為聖神的臨在而高興，其實不然，抗拒聖神的引誘仍然存在。...聖神推動我們更主動傳福音，但我們抗拒。...聽從居住在我們內的聖神，並往成聖的道路進發。」
教宗也提及梵蒂岡第二次大公會議中很多的建議沒有完全實行，是人們抗拒聖神的例子。
Pope Francis dedicated Tuesday's mass to Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI who turned 86 on this date. His homily was centred on the theme of the Holy Spirit. He said: "Everybody seems happy about the presence of the Holy Spirit but it's not really the case and there is still that temptation to resist it...The Spirit pushes us to take a more evangelical path but we resist this...Submit to the Holy Spirit, which comes from within us and makes go forward along the path of holiness".
Pope Francis mentioned that the proposals weren not fully implemented due to people's resistance of the Holy Spirit.
