The speech of Pope Francis delivered by Cardinal Parolin to COP28

“We continue to pray for the Pope and the success of COP28”

Let us continue to pray for the Holy Father

"Don't let your hope be stolen by the evil we see around us in the world. God's love is stronger than evil. He conquered death, which is why we commit ourselves every day for our good and the good of all"

"The gift of God surprises us and always precedes us. God's grace is a gift and not our conquest."

"God never abandons us. He is our Hope and our peace. May the Lord touch the hearts of the leaders to move them toward peace and reconciliation."

Holy Father Pope Francis' Message on 38th World Youth Day, 2023: 'Rejoicing in Hope' (Rom 12:12)

"Family ties are positive because they enhance everyone's life, like the river's water with its banks. We learn to be ourselves only if we are together with others."

"God gives his people many charisms, but we must make them bear fruit and not hide them."

Do not follow false teachers; do not follow those who teach false wisdom and promise you false happiness obtained through money, power, and dominion over others. If we want to learn the Wisdom of God let us have Jesus as our master.

You, enlightened by the wisdom of God, are called to be at their side not only with your nursing expertise but also with the wisdom of God, so that you know how to console souls, know how to help those in need.

Bishop Paolo Martinelli has called all the faithful in the Apostolic Vicariate to offer special prayers for the Journey of Holy Father Pope Francis to COP28 in Dubai. The Bishop has written an open letter to all the faithful in the vicariate on 10th November highlighting the importance of this climate summit and the Holy Father's efforts to bring a change in the world to protect Mother earth.

This Jubilee Year, in fact, is an opportunity to delve deeper into the meaning of the Christian testimony that we are called to bear every day with our lives. The Second Vatican Council explained it very well, recalling that:

Cardinal Ayuso and Bishop Paolo were also present in this forum

Let us continue to pray for peace in our region and all over the world

"When we want to have control over others and do not serve them with love, we become clerical, even if we are not priests."

"Only those who truly love, live to the fullest. Only those who give their lives for love fully realize themselves and make the church, the world, and the society more beautiful."

Bishop Paolo : "We are happy to know that Holy Father Pope Francis will be joining the COP28 in Dubai for a short time. I ask all the faithful of our Vicariate to keep the Holy Father and his journey to COP28 in Dubai in prayer"

The fact of remembering in prayer our relatives and friends who have concluded their earthly mission is a gesture of great human value that challenges aspects of the mentality that often dominates in the world: forgetfulness.

"The feast of all saints reminds us of our baptismal vocation, to be saints, to love and to be loved, to be in communion with one another, to be a Church on the move in the service of the kingdom of God."
