Pope Francis said Friday that
he was thinking about the suffering of people from war-torn
Syria during an audience with members of the Pontifical Romanian
College.
"By meeting you I think of the situation in which there are
so many faithful in your lands, many families who are forced to
leave their homes in the face of waves of violence and
suffering," the pope told those present from the Pontifical
College of St Ephrem, which provides lodgings for
Arabic-language student priests from all of the Oriental
Catholic Churches and who are welcomed by the Pontifical
Romanian College.
"I want to embrace these brothers and sisters in a special
way, together with their Patriarchs and Bishops".
