Pope condemns"massacre" of women and children in GazaCelebrating the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Apostolic Administration of Estonia, Pope Francis sent a letter to Bishop Philippe Jean-Charles Jourdan of the Diocese of Tallinn.
The Pope’s message began by recalling his journey to Estonia in 2018 and he congratulated the milestone as it “marks a century of steadfast fidelity to the Catholic faith.” He praised the “small yet vibrant Church” for being a “source of compassion and spiritual nourishment for countless men and women across the nation.
In light of the war in Europe, the Pope shared his hope that as Estonian Catholics seek to create “a society rooted in peace, justice, solidarity, and the dignity of every human person,” they will “work with men and women of other Christian denominations” to achieve this mission. He challenged them not to forget those most in need by extending “the hand of friendship to refugees and the most vulnerable.
