During November Pope Francis invites us to pray 'That the language of love and dialogue may always prevail over the language of conflict'.

"....We don’t think about it often, but everything is connected, and we need to restore our connections to a healthy state. Even the harsh judgment I hold in my heart against my brother or my sister, the open wound that was never cured, the offence that was never forgiven, the rancor that is only going to hurt me, are all instances of a fight that I carry within me, a flare deep in my heart that needs to be extinguished before it goes up in flames, leaving only ashes behind...."

During November Pope Francis asks us to pray 'That the language of love and dialogue may always prevail over the language of conflict.'

"Pope Francis urges us not to be indifferent to others, to find ways of responding to injustice and brokenness...we want to bring about deep, lasting peace with justice, to find opportunities to work things out together.

We want to appeal to the other to make better choices that will affirm the humanity of all those involved...The open and outstretched hand says: We need to talk, I am open to you, we have to face this together and change."
