Papež mladim Afričanom: Cerkev vam zaupa, bodite priče ljubezni, pravičnosti in miru

In brief

Pope Leo XIV sent a video message to young people attending the first West Africa Youth Day, telling them the Church trusts them to be witnesses of love, justice, and peace.

In his message to the participants, who are gathered from September 7 to 12, the Pope encouraged the youth to walk together and work to ensure that no one is excluded or rejected. He described the young people as the present reality of God and the Church and urged them to act as bridge builders between different peoples, cultures, and faiths.
