Pope Francis sent a video message to participants in the World Cyber Meeting of Youth, Parents and Professors, on World Environment Day.<\/p>\n
The meeting was promoted by the pontifical foundation, Scholas Occurrentes. Pope Francis pointed out that this educational project was born out of a crisis. It's a word signifying rupture and danger, but also opportunity.<\/p>\n
POPE FRANCIS<\/strong> Among the meeting's participants were a number of First Ladies, including Roc\u00edo Gonz\u00e1lez Navas from Ecuador, and Fabiola Ya\u00f1ez from Argentina. There were also athletes, artists, political leaders, and tech experts.<\/p>\n The pope reminded them that if crises are faced alone, they can be dangerous, because one can become disoriented.<\/p>\n POPE FRANCIS<\/strong> Scholas is a pontifical foundation that creates networks to connect students and education centers from all around the world. Their mission is to promote respect between different cultures.<\/p>\n Daniel D\u00edaz Vizzi<\/p>\n Translation: Claudia Torres<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" June 5, 2020.

\n \u201cI feel sorry for a humanity without crisis! All perfect, all orderly, all nicely pressed. If we think about it, a humanity like that would be a sick humanity, very sick. Thank God it is not that way.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\n \u201cIn a crisis, fear invades us. We close ourselves off as individuals, and we start to repeat what benefits very few. We empty ourselves of meaning, hiding our call, losing sight of beauty. This is what happens when one faces a crisis alone, without support. Beauty, as Dostoyevsky said, will save the world.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
