Vatican
City, 5 June 2013
(VIS) – After his catechesis, greeting the faithful from the
different language groups, the Pope welcomed the French-speaking
pilgrims from the Antilles, Mauritius, and the Ivory Coast. He took
advantage of the opportunity to note the presence of a group of imams
from France who are engaged in interreligious dialogue. He also
invited all, as he had already urged during the catechesis, to care
for creation and for the human person.
He
also greeted the seminarians and newly ordained priests from Poland,
urging them to thank Christ for the gift of their vocation and to
cultivate it “in the light and strength of the Holy Spirit, so that
you will always be zealous ministers of God's grace and true guides
of the paths of holiness.” He then invited all the Polish people to
give thanks to God for their priests and to “support them with your
prayers, benevolence, and good counsel.”
