APOSTOLIC JOURNEY OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS TO BULGARIA AND NORTH MACEDONIA [5-7 MAY 2019], REMARKS OF THE HOLY FATHER

Vrazhdebna Refugee Center (Sofia)

Thank you very much for your welcome. Thank you to the children, for their very
beautiful song. They bring joy on your path. Your path is not always easy, and then
there is the sadness of leaving your homeland and seeking to adapt to another
country. Yet there is always hope. Today, the world of migrants and refugees is
something of a cross, a cross for humanity, and a cross that so many people suffer
from. I thank you for your goodwill, and I wish all the best for you and your fellow
citizens whom you have left behind in your homeland. May God bless you, and please
pray for me.
