About 100,000 people gathered today for Pope Francis’ jubilee audience on how dialogue “breaks down the walls of divisions and misunderstandings, builds bridges of communication, and does not allow anyone to turn inward into his or her own world” but “invites us to stand before others seeing them as a gift of God”. “The Church too lives of dialogue with the men and women of every age, to understand the needs that are at the heart of every person and contribute to achieving the common good.”
Pope Francis spoke today in his special audience for the Jubilee Year of Mercy before an assembled crowd of 100,000. "All forms of dialogue are an expression of the great need of love for God who reaches out to everyone and in everybody he puts a seed of his goodness, so that he or she can help in his creative work." Such dialogue "breaks down the walls of divisions and misunderstandings, builds bridges of communication, and does not allow anyone to turn inward into his or her world,” but “invites us to stand before others seeing them as a gift of God".
