On this fifth anniversary of Fratelli tutti, we reflect with gratitude on Pope Francis’ call to universal fraternity and social friendship. May the message of Fratelli tutti continue to inspire us to build a world of justice, peace, and solidarity, embracing all as brothers and sisters.
“Each of us should examine our hearts, our thoughts, and our actions” so that we may better strive to end “the polarization and animosity plaguing our nation,” said Archbishop Timothy Broglio, President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, in reflecting on this fifth anniversary of Fratelli tutti.
Today, may we recommit to living out this vision, fostering unity and love in our communities.
