Vatican City, 23 November 2015 (VIS) –
This morning in the Vatican Apostolic Palace, the Holy Father Francis
received in audience the governor general of Antigua and Barbuda, Sir
Rodney Williams, who subsequently met with Cardinal Secretary of
State Pietro Parolin, accompanied by Archbishop Paul Richard
Gallagher, secretary for Relations with States.
During the cordial discussions,
emphasis was placed on the good bilateral relations, strengthened
during recent years by the appointment of an Ambassador to the Holy
See. Attention then turned to the contribution offered by the
Catholic Church to the promotion of the protection of the human
person, as well as in the sectors of education and assistance to
those most in need, and the hope of a fruitful mutual collaboration
was expressed.
Finally, the parties considered some
themes of regional and global relevance, with particular reference to
migratory flows and climate change.
