Pope Francis gave an emotional mass on Thursday in Nettuno, Italy, in which he warned the world is heading “forcefully into war.” He was speaking at the cemetery where thousands of U.S. soldiers who died liberating southern Italy during World War II are buried.
Pope Francis: “Please, Lord, stop. No more. No more war. No more of these useless massacres. Today that the world once more is at war and is preparing to go even more forcefully into war: No more, Lord. Let us pray for those who are dying in wars today, even innocent children. Death is the fruit of war. And may the lord give us the grace to be able to cry.”
