As he greeted pilgrims at the Wednesday General Audience,
Pope Leo XIV asked for prayers and humanitarian projects on behalf of children
suffering in places torn by war.
“Remember in your prayers and humanitarian projects the
children of Ukraine, Gaza, and other regions of the world afflicted by war,” he
said.
Speaking to Polish pilgrims, the Pope recalled the National
Day of Polish Victims of War, which commemorates the suffering of children and
their contribution to the reconstruction of Poland after World War II.
“I entrust you and the children who are suffering today to
the protection of Mary, Queen of Peace,” added the Pope.
Pope Leo also prayed for everyone enduring the turbulent
situation in the Middle East, as he greeted the Arabic-speaking faithful.
“I invite you to transform your cry in moments of trial and
tribulation into a trusting prayer, because God always listens to his children
and responds at the moment he deems best for us,” he said. “May the Lord bless
you all and always protect you from every evil!”
