Poe Francis appealed at his weekly
general audience in the Vatican Wednesday for people around the
world not to "close their hearts amid so many wars.
"When faced with so many wars, let us not close our hearts to
those who are in need, let prayer, fasting and alms giving be
the path to building peace," said the pope to Polish pilgrims,
marking the start of Lent on Ash Wednesday.
"Let us intensify our prayers for peace" said the Argentine
pontiff, appealing for "the martyred Ukraine, Palestine and
Israel".
