Pope to Youth: Let Apostolic
Exhortation be a guide to faith and service
 |
| Pope Francis following the Angelus (Vatican Media) |
Pope Francis during the Angelus recalls that Palm Sunday is
also diocesan World Youth Day and invites young people to live out the fruits
of the Synod, in the form of the Apostolic Exhortation, Christ is alive.
During the Angelus that followed the celebration of Holy
Mass this Palm Sunday, Pope Francis recalled that it was also diocesan World
Youth Day and invited the young people present in St Peter’s Square to live out
the words contained in the recent Apostolic Exhortation Christus vivit (Christ
is alive), which was a fruit of last October’s Synod on Youth.
In this text, he said, “each of you can find fruitful ideas
for your own life and your own path of growth in faith and in service to your
brothers and sisters.”
Pray the Rosary
Pope Francis also gifted each of the young people present in
the square a Rosary.
He told them that the “olive wood beads were made in the
Holy Land specifically for the World Youth Meeting in Panama last January and
for today's Day. I therefore renew my call to young people and to all to pray
the Rosary for peace, especially for peace in the Holy Land and in the Middle
East.”
