«I give a warm welcome to the Arabic-speaking pilgrims, particularly those from the Middle East!», said Pope Francis during the General Audience of April 26, 2017.
This morning’s General Audience was held at 9:30 in St. Peter’s Square, where the Holy Father Francis met with groups of pilgrims and faithful from Italy and from all over the world.
The Pope spoke in Italian, translated immediately into Arabic by one of his collaborators in the Roman Curia: «Dear brothers and sisters, remind yourselves always that our existence is a pilgrimage and that the love of God precedes us, and sustains us in our journey.»
«May the Lord bless you all!» he said.
