Hello! Can you imagine someone being capable of looking into the eyes of another person while torturing them?. Well, it happens, and it’s not something from the past, or that happened only at the time of Jesus, whom, as you know, was cruelly tortured. Rather, “it is part of our history today. Such barbarity is possible only if victims are not considered as people, but as “things” who “can be mistreated mercilessly.” Human dignity goes out the window. Join millions of people around the world as we pray together with Pope Francis for the “abolition of torture”
In this month’s Prayer Intention and the accompanying video, produced by the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network, Pope Francis asks us to pray together, which means to take action, so that “that the international community commit itself concretely to abolish torture, guaranteeing support to victims and their families.”
