Solidarity...is a structural value of the social doctrine, as Blessed John Paul II reminded us.

Sometimes tears are the glasses that we need to see Jesus.

I wish to extend an invitation to solidarity to everyone, and I would like to encourage those in public office to make every effort to give new impetus to employment, this means caring for the dignity of the person, but above all I would say do not lose hope.

In the difficult moments of life, Christians can turn to the Mother of God and find protection and care.

In the poor and outcast we see Christ’s face; by loving and helping the poor, we love and serve Christ.

I had a long conversation with the imam, the Grand Imam of the Al-Azhar University, and I know how they think... They seek peace, encounter.

Only by becoming poor ourselves, by stripping away our complacency, will we be able to identify with the least of our brothers and sisters.
