THE POPE SUPPORTS CARITAS' GLOBAL CAMPAIGN AGAINST HUNGER


Vatican City, 11 December 2013 (VIS) – After today's catechesis, the Pope mentioned that yesterday Caritas launched a worldwide campaign against hunger and food wastage, with the motto: “One human family, food for all”. “The scandal that millions of people suffer from hunger should not paralyse us”, he said, “but rather should press us to act – all of us: individuals, families, communities, institutions, governments – to eradicate this injustice. The Gospel of Jesus shows us the way: trust in the providence of the Father and share our daily bread without wasting it. I encourage Caritas in their efforts, and invite all to join in this 'wave' of solidarity”.
