Thanksgiving Day for twelve years of Pontificate and a call for his quick recovery: the camel that rose from the Hungarian Church in the Vatican Grewas in the Church of San Pedro yesterday, Thursday, March 20, by the ambassadors accredited before they sent both the French Pope. Diplomats for the Liturgy headed by Cardinal Peter Torxon, Advisor to the papal academies of science and social sciences.

After God called to give the Pope “the necessary power to carry out the task that was confident”, the Cardinal offered in his sermon a reflection on the evangelical episode of the rich and poor man, and an invitation to transform the heart and goodness. “The wealthy had a test to overcome it, and the presence of the poor Lazaros at his door. It is a test he was unable to confront,” he said, stressing that “we all have evidence to overcome in our lives.”

Jubilee, source of hope

Then he urged the African diplomats to “pray for the sacred Father even before this test, his confidence and hope for God.” “During this year, the jubilee,” turkson was reflected, “The Pope has constantly urged hope. This jubilee, which has devoted hope, is also a source for him for him, in the Lord,” was the last desire in Cardinal.

The African continent’s affection

On the sidelines, the Cameroon Ambassador in the Holy See, Antoine Zanga, told the proximity and the solidarity of the entire African Church of the continent: “We are fighting the gift of health to Pope Francis, thank God for the debate of the Holy Father, always in need of our prayers.” The diplomat said: “I am stronger in our faith, we are fed the hope that the Lord will restore his servant to the continuation of the task in which he was entrusted, and we pray that the Holy Father hopes in God. Pope Francis was the one who opened the jubilee of hope.
