During his visit to Colombia, Pope Francis is preaching a message of peace for a nation torn by fifty years of civil war, and for all of us:
Francis: "The Lord embraces all, and—listen to this!—all of us are important and essential to Him."
People in plaza, Bogotá, Colombia: Large crowd cheering, waving colors, etc.
Francis: "During these days I would like to share with you the most important truth: that God loves us with the love of a Father who encourages us to continue looking for and desiring peace—that peace which is authentic and abiding. God loves us with the love of a Father. Shall we repeat this together?"
People: "God loves us with the love of a Father!"
Francis: "This is the foundation of joy."
