Think of the children in countries at war, the starving children of Yemen, the starving children of Syria, the starving children of so many countries where there is no bread. In South Sudan... Let us think of these children and say out loud the prayer: Father, give us our daily bread today. All together.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The pope said this request for bread is a reminder of equality for all people and everyone's entitlement to the basic necessities.
