Vatican
City, 13 November 2013 (VIS) – After today's catechesis, Pope
Francis renewed his appeal for an end to the tragedy in Syria and
also mentioned the Philippine people currently suffering the
consequences of the super-typhoon Haiyan.
“It
is with great sadness that I have learnt of the mortar attack two
days ago in Damascus in which several children were killed on the way
home from school, along with the driver of their bus. Other children
were injured. Please, let us pray with all our strength that these
tragedies may never again happen! In these days we are praying and
uniting our strength to help our brothers and sisters in the
Philippines, struck by the typhoon. These are the real battles that
must be fought. For life, never for death!”
