“The Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, now before us, is a good opportunity to work together in the field of works of charity,” said Pope Francis, ideally turning to other religions, in the audience for the 50th anniversary of Nostra Aetate. “And in this field – he continued -, especially where it counts compassion, can join us so many people who do not feel or believe that they are looking for God and the truth, people that focus on the face of the other, in particularly the face of the brother or sister in need. ”

“But the mercy we are called – added Francesco – embraces all of creation, that God has entrusted to us because we are stewards, not exploiters or, even worse, destructive. We should always propose to leave the world a better place than we found it, in the communities we live in, from little gestures of our daily lives”.
