( detail of the Chapel of Souls in the Cathedral: The Hope)

“May the first sign of hope be translated into peace for the world, which once again finds itself immersed in the tragedy of war.

Unmindful of the dramas of the past, humanity is undergoing a new and difficult test that sees so many peoples oppressed by the brutality of violence. What are these peoples still missing that they have not already suffered? How is it that their desperate cry for help does not prompt the leaders of nations to want to put an end to the too many regional conflicts, aware of the worldwide consequences that can result?

Is it too much to dream that weapons will shut up and stop bringing destruction and death?

The Jubilee reminds us that those who become “peacemakers will be called children of God” (Mt. 5:9).

The need for peace challenges everyone and demands that concrete projects be pursued.

Let there be no lack of commitment to diplomacy to build with courage and creativity

room for negotiation aimed at a lasting peace.”
