“I would like us to have hope that peace is possible.”
In this Sunday’s Pascual Message, Pope Francis reiterated his call to achieve a high fire in the Gaza Strip, as well as the release of hostages and humanitarian aid for hungry.
From the Basilica of San Pedro in Ciudad del Vaticano, the Supreme Pontiff, in his speech that Monsignor Diego Ravelli, a master of the pontifical liturgical ceremonies, said that “the evil has not disappeared from our history, it will remain until the end, but it no longer has dominance, it no longer has power over who welcomes the grace of this day.”
In this sense, he made an analogy between the resurrection of Jesus that was imposed on the dark of the world and the struggle of justice and peace in current societies, “from the empty sepulcher of Jerusalem, the surprising announcement reaches us: Jesus, the crucified, ‘is not here, has risen.” The darkness.
“I would like us to have hope that peace is possible,” he stressed, while expressing his concern about the murder of the Palestinians in Gaza “where the terrible conflict continues to take death and destruction, and causing a dramatic and unworthy humanitarian crisis,” said the pontiff.
