\n \u201cMy appeal is that these brothers and sisters will not lack our solidarity and the support of the international community. Let us pray together.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\n \u201cMay the Virgin Mary obtain for us the grace to live an 'extroverted' Christmas, not dispersed, but extroverted. Let not our 'I' be at the center, but the You of Jesus and the you of our brothers and sisters, especially those who need help.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
