On occasion of World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day this May 8, the pope prayed for the people who work with this humanitarian network.
POPE FRANCIS
Today is World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day. Let us pray for the people who work in these meritorious institutions. May the Lord bless their work, that does so much good.
In the past, the Red Cross and Red Crescent network has carried out impressive feats in defense of the person, even in the middle of different global conflicts. Today, it is a key player in facing the pandemic.
