00:17We are live with Paul Leo Fortinza at the Catholic University of Argentina. Let's listen to his words.
00:23The words of a good life which frees us from solitude and bring peoples together in harmony. The word religion
00:32shows this for religare means to connect, to bind people to one another. This relationship sustains our journey through history.
00:48Therefore, as we praise God for the gift of hope, let us share it with those who suffer in poverty
00:57and with those who've lost the meaning of life and with all who wish to commit themselves to renewing the
01:03world in justice.
01:06Becoming prayer and proclamation, our language is thus transformed into eloquent charity, which inspires every action.
01:18Herein lies our service to humanity, to build a better future for all, as we await the blessed fulfillment of
01:28history.
01:29We are indeed certain that the more generally men and women come to know themselves, caring for their own dignity,
01:38the closer they draw to God.
01:42Thus, every good word spoken to someone we meet, every good gesture directed toward our neighbor, rises like a prayer,
01:53ever pleasing to the author of justice, who invites everyone to peace.
01:59In this regard, in this regard, as St. John Paul II said, together we wish to show the world that
02:09the genuine impulse to prayer does not lead to opposition and still less to disdain of others, but rather to
02:18constructive dialogue.
02:20A dialogue, a dialogue in which each one, without relativism or syncretism of any kind, becomes more deeply aware of
02:33the duty to bear witness and to proclaim.
02:36These words, spoken in Assisi on a day of prayer for peace, remain urgently relevant.
02:45Today, they are a reason for gratitude for the commitment of us all and a source of encouragement for each
02:55person's journey.
02:57Dear brothers and sisters, may every day be a time of prayer so that everyone's life may reflect the dignity
03:07and goodness that we have received from God to share with one another.
03:14Let's make our prayer.
03:15Let's make our own, the prayer left to us by my predecessor, Pope Francis, which commits us to doing good.
03:27Lord, Father of our human family, you created all human beings equal in dignity, pour forth into our hearts a
03:37fraternal spirit and inspire in us a dream of renewed encounter, dialogue, justice and peace.
03:46Let's move us, move us, move us to create healthier societies and a more dignified world, a world without hunger,
03:55poverty, violence and war.
04:00May our hearts be open to all the peoples and nations of the earth.
04:08May we recognize the goodness and beauty that you have sown in each of us and thus forge bonds of
04:15unity, common projects and shared dreams. Amen.
04:32May the Almighty bless our enthusiasm for humanity and inspire our commitment to peace, the peace that will be fulfilled
04:42forever in the holy name of God. Thank you.
