Pope Francis on Friday asked the
Madonna to convert those who foment hatred and conflict.
"Shake the soul of those who are trapped by hatred, convert
those who feed and foment conflicts. Wipe away the tears of
children", "assist those who are lonely and elderly, support the
wounded and the sick, protect those who have had to leave their
land and their dearest loved ones, console the disheartened,
reawaken hope", said the Pontiff addressing Our Lady.
"We consecrate our world to you, especially countries and
regions at war", "open glimmers of light in the night of
conflict", "inspire paths of peace to the leaders of nations".
"You, Lady of all nations, reconcile your children, deceived by
evil, blinded by power and hatred."
