Then, after the Eucharist and before praying the Angelus, he appealed for unity. \u201cPrecisely, while the Church contemplates the mystery of the Lord's Passion, we cannot forget those who today participate in a real way in his suffering.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe earth, the sky and the sea have been created for life and for peace.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\u201cThe ordeal they are undergoing challenges the conscience of all,\u201d the Pontiff continued. \u201cLet us raise our supplication to the Prince of Peace, that he may sustain the peoples wounded by war and open concrete paths of reconciliation and peace.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Pope also commended to the Lord \u201call the sailors who are victims of war: I pray for the dead, for the wounded and for their families. The earth, the sky and the sea were created for life and for peace\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also asked that \u201cwe pray for all migrants who have died at sea, in particular for those who have lost their lives in recent days off the coast of the island of Crete\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PapaDomingodeRamos.jpg\")
