Our sisters and brothers in these areas and in other parts of our world are experiencing profound suffering on a daily basis. In his Easter message, Pope Francis urged the world to resist “the logic of weapons” and made a strong appeal for Gaza’s access to humanitarian aid and for an immediate ceasefire in the area.
In remarks after the Angelus on Sunday, Pope Francis explained that the Year of Prayer is dedicated “to rediscovering the great value and absolute need for prayer, prayer in personal life, in the life of the Church, prayer in the world.” He added that the Dicastery for Evangelization will be preparing materials to assist in celebrating the Year.
