(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis and Papal Representatives from across the globe have issued a pressing appeal to world leaders to work harder for peace.
The appeal addressed to the International Community and to government leaders came in a statement following a meeting between Pope Francis and his diplomatic representatives on the heels of a three day gathering in the Vatican convened for the Holy Year of Mercy.
The Pope, his Apostolic Nuncios and the Vatican’s Permanent Observers to International Bodies urge world powers to “work harder and more effectively to stop the violence and find peaceful solutions to conflicts in various parts of the world”.
The signatories of the appeal also expressed solidarity for all innocent victims and for those who suffer discrimination and persecution because of their religious faith, and they pray God the Father for mercy.
