POPE FRANCIS

POPE FRANCIS
'Even among the young, a sad reality is the rise of a globalization of indifference which makes a person incapable of feeling compassion at the outcry of the poor.'
The pope calls for responsibility on two fronts. First, he asked institutions to invest in youth and for young people to think of everyone and to work for the common good of their societies.
