教宗方濟各在週三接見了女修會總會長國際聯合會的總會長,他說在教會中的野心家和立意向上爬,利用教會內的兄弟姊妹去達成自己的利益和野心的人...為教會帶來很大傷害。

教宗也跟她們談及服務: 「我們永遠不要忘記真正的權力,不論在任何層面,是服務,這就是十字架的最高峰。...『你們中最大的,要成為最小的;為首領的,要成為服事人的。』」

“The men and women of the Church who are careerists and social climbers, who 'use' people, the Church, their brothers and sisters—whom they should be serving—as a springboard for their own personal interests and ambitions … are doing great harm to the Church.” Pope Francis asserted in his address to the participants in the plenary assembly of the International Union of Superiors General (UISG) whom he received in audience on Wednesday morning.

The Pope said: “We must never forget that true power, at whatever level, is service, which has its bright summit upon the Cross. … 'Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave'.”
