Pope Francis sends Independence
Day greetings to Nicaragua
Ahead of Nicaragua’s Independence Day, Pope Francis sends
his greetings, asking God to grant peace to the Nicaraguans suffering the
consequences of ongoing violent protests.
Pope Francis sent a message to the people of Nicaragua on
Tuesday, ahead of the country's Independence Day on September 15th.
In the message, Pope Francis sends his cordial greetings to
the people of Nicaragua. He assures them of his prayers.
“May Jesus Christ, the prince of peace, grant you the
gift of fraternal reconciliation and of a life shared in peace and solidarity.”
Pope Francis sent his message to President Daniel Ortega
through the Apostolic Nuncio to Nicaragua, Archbishop Waldemar Stanisław
Sommertag.
Nicaragua has been suffering a political crisis since April, when demonstrations
demanding President Ortega’s resignation turned violent.
More than 300 people have died and another 2,000 have been
injured in the protests.
