Vatican City, 14 October 2015 (VIS) –
Following today's catechesis, the Holy Father mentioned that Saturday
17 October will be International Day for the Eradication of Poverty,
instituted by Fr. Joseph Wresinski, France. The aim of this day is to
promote greater efforts for the elimination of extreme poverty and
discrimination, to ensure that every person is able to fully exercise
his or her fundamental rights. “We are all invited to make this
intention our own, so that Christ's charity may reach and relieve the
poorest and most abandoned of our brothers and sisters”, said Pope
Francis.
