Vatican City, Apr 23, 2013 / 15:01 pm
Visiting the Vatican to participate in the recent TEDx conference on religious freedom, Cuban singer Gloria Estefan said that the teachings of Jesus Christ are central to ensuring peace in the world.
In an interview with CNA, Estefan said she believes it is important that "the basic teachings of Jesus Christ" be passed on to young people.
"It's about treating other human beings like you want to be treated, and if we did that, there would be no conflicts or difficulties in life," she said.
The singer arrived in Rome with her husband Emilio Estefan. During the conference, she performed a song and shared her experience with the hundreds of attendees who arrived from all parts of the world.
