Vatican City, May 26, 2020 / 07:45 am
In a letter to an Italian journalist Monday, Pope Francis said we should pray for mothers to have courage as they face the challenges of the post-coronavirus world.
"The question of every mother resounds in the heart: 'What world will my child live in?'" the pope wrote.
"Let us pray for them, so that the Lord may give them the courage to accompany their children with the trust that it will certainly be a different world, but it will always be a world loved very much by the Lord."
Pope Francis spoke about mothers in a letter sent May 25 to journalist Nina Fabrizio, author of the book "Francesco, il Papa delle Donne" (Francis: the Pope of Women).
