Dear Young Friends, Learn To Pray Every

We Have Begun A Throw Away Culture. This Tendency Is Seen On The Level Of Individuals And Whole Societies; And It Is Being Promoted! In Circumstances Like These, Solidarity, Which Is The Treasure Of The Poor, Is Often Considered Counterproductive, Opposed To The Logic Of Finance And The Economy. While The Income Of A Minority Is Increasing Exponentially, That Of The Majority Is Crumbling.

Families Have A Citizenship Which Is Divine. The Identity Card They Have Is Given To Them By God. So That Within The Heart Of The Family, Truth, Goodness And Beauty May Truly Grow.

No One Can Remain Insensitive To The Inequalities That Persist In The World ... The Brazilian People, Particularly The Humblest Among You, Can Offer The World A Valuable Lesson In Solidarity, A Word That Is Too Often Forgotten Or Silenced Because It Is Uncomfortable ... I Would Like To Make An Appeal To Those In Possession Of Greater Resources, To Public Authorities And To All People Of Good Will Who Are Working For Social Justice: Never Tire Of Working For A More Just World, Marked By Greater Solidarity

Vocations Are Born In Prayer And From Prayer; And Only In Prayer Can They Persevere And Bear Fruit.

The Lord Has Redeemed All Of Us, All Of Us, With The Blood Of Christ: All Of Us, Not Just Catholics. Everyone! 'father, The Atheists?' Even The Atheists. Everyone!
