Let us #PrayTogether for #HumanitarianWorkers, especially for those who have died or been injured while helping people affected by wars and disasters. Humanitarians show that we can be "fratelli tutti" by taking care of others.

The fragrance of Christ emanates from the “fruits of the Spirit,” which are “love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control” (Gal 5:22). How wonderful it is to meet someone who possesses these virtues!

Let us #PrayTogether for martyred Ukraine, which suffers greatly. May we not forget Myanmar, South Sudan, North Kivu, and the many countries at war. Let us pray for peace, and let us not forget Palestine and Israel: may there be peace!

We live in a world at war, with ongoing crises and conflicts. Let us find the wisdom and strength to see beyond the clouds and read the signs of the times. In the hope generated by faith, may we inspire young people to work for a better tomorrow.

It is not easy to follow the Lord, understanding His way of acting and making His criteria and example our own. Yet, the more we are near Him, the more we experience the beauty of having Him as our Friend. We come to realize that He alone has the "words of eternal life."

Jesus asks you for a gaze that does not stop at outward appearance. He asks you to look at the heart with a gaze that is not judgmental but welcomes others. For love alone heals life.

Dear brothers and sisters, let us unite our hearts and efforts, so that the seas and deserts may become not cemeteries but places where God can open paths to freedom and fraternity. vatican.va/content/france…

Let us #PrayTogether that each of us may listen with our hearts to the cry of the Earth and of victims of environmental disasters and the climate crisis. May we make a personal commitment to care for the world we inhabit. #PrayerIntention #ClickToPray

Today we celebrate the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. The Holy Spirit invites us to change our lifestyles, because we are all responsible for the care of our common home. @vaticanIHD

In the #GospelOfTheDay, Jesus explains that "purity" is not linked to external rituals, but first and foremost to our inner dispositions. For example, we cannot appear devout in prayer, but then treat our family with coldness and detachment at home.

Let us #PrayTogether for the victims of the terrorist attack in Burkina Faso. I condemn these heinous attacks against human life, and express my closeness to the entire nation and my heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims.

I remain close to the martyred Ukrainian people, who have been severely affected by attacks on energy infrastructure. Let us remember that the voice of the innocent is always heard by God, who is never indifferent to their suffering!

Let us #PrayTogether for the conflict in Palestine and Israel. May there be peace in the Holy Land; may there be peace in Jerusalem! May the Holy City be a place of encounter where Christians, Jews, and Muslims feel respected and welcomed.

Today I begin an Apostolic Journey to several countries in Asia and Oceania. Please pray that this journey may bear fruit.

Harmony is achieved when we are committed not only to our own interests and vision, but to the good of all. #ApostolicJourney

Just as the ocean is the natural element uniting all Indonesian islands, the mutual respect for the specific characteristics of all the groups present in #Indonesia is the indispensable and unifying fabric that makes Indonesians a united and proud people. #ApostolicJourney

No two drops of water are alike, nor are two brothers or sisters, not even twins are completely identical. Living out fraternity means welcoming each other, recognizing each other as equal in diversity. #ApostolicJourney

By looking closely at what is happening in our lives and at the desire for fullness that dwells in the depths of our hearts, we discover that we are all brothers and sisters. We are all pilgrims on our way to God, beyond our differences. #ApostolicJourney

Our life of faith begins when we humbly welcome Jesus into the boat of our lives, make room for Him, listen to His Word and let ourselves be questioned, challenged and changed by it. #ApostolicJourney

Saint Teresa of Calcutta, whose memory we celebrate today, used to say, “even if you reap nothing, never tire of sowing”.
