Pope quotes St Augustine on peace

30 août 2026

L’intervenant invite à prier pour la paix, en citant saint Augustin pour illustrer la paix comme un pain partagé qui grandit en se donnant, et appelle à dépasser les divisions par la justice et le pardon. Il annonce ensuite la Journée mondiale de prière pour la sauvegarde de la Création et le Temps pour la Création sur le thème de l’“Eau vive”, exhortant à une conversion du cœur et à s’engager en prière et en action pour la paix et la protection de la maison commune.

Intervenant 1

Continuiamo a pregare per la pace. Sant'Agostino, la cui memoria abbiamo celebrato in questi giorni, diceva che la pace è simile al pane del miracolo che cresceva nelle mani dei discepoli mentre lo spezzavano e lo distribuivano. Possano aumentare nel mondo quanti con coraggio spezzano e distribuiscono il pane della pace, superando le divisioni, promuovendo la giustizia, praticando il perdono per il bene di tutti.

Intervenant 2

On Tuesday, we celebrate the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. This marks the beginning of the Season of Creation, observed by Christians of various denominations, whose theme this year is Living Water. As I recalled in the message for this day, caring for our common home calls for a conversion of heart, so that what has been used to bring about destruction may instead be directed toward life. I invite everyone to join in prayer and action that we may become channels of the living water of God's peace, refreshing our wounded world.
