Vatican
City, 27 December 2015 (VIS) – Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro

''The
Holy Father was deeply saddened to learn of the senseless killing of
innocent people in Mindanao, and he sends condolences to the families
of those who lost their lives. His Holiness prays that security and
safety will be established for all people in the region, so that

from fear. He asks all believers to reject violence in the name of
God who is love, and invokes abundant divine gifts of consolation,
mercy and strength upon those affected by this tragedy.''
