The Pope encouraged individuals to change ‘our mentality a little’ and open ‘ourselves to the abilities and talents of these people who are differently abled, both in society as well as in the life of the Church.’
Pope Francis references St. John Paul II, who said: ‘If you live with young people you become young yourself.’
The Pope’s prayer video, released monthly, includes images of the Mass, especially the moment of the elevation of the Eucharist during transubstantiation — or the moment the bread becomes Christ’s body.
Pope Francis concluded his message with a prayer: ‘Let us pray that the international community commit itself concretely to abolish torture, guaranteeing support to victims and their families.’
