Pope Francis has written a letter to Luciano Fontana, editor-in-chief of the Italian daily Corriere della Sera, in response to his message of support during the Pope’s recent illness. In the letter, the Pope urges Fontana to help amplify his appeal for peace and disarmament.
The Pope noted that society often avoids engaging with the fragile and wounded, fearing the uncomfortable questions they pose about humanity’s direction, both individually and collectively.
He urged communicators to recognise the power of their words, stressing that they are not just words—they shape our world. Words can unite or divide, serve truth or manipulate it for selfish gain, and must be used responsibly to promote peace, calm minds, and heal divisions.
Pope Francis also called for renewed commitment to diplomacy and international cooperation, emphasising that war only exacerbates suffering without resolving underlying issues.
He stressed the importance of revitalising international organisations and restoring trust in their peace efforts. Furthermore, he pointed out that religions can inspire a renewed commitment to justice, fraternity, and hope for lasting peace.
The Pope concluded with a call for collective effort, stressing the need for dedication, reflection, silence, and, above all, thoughtful and intentional words. He expressed hope that divine grace would continue to guide and inspire these efforts.
The message was shared from the Pope’s residence at Policlinico Gemelli in Rome on 14th March 2025.
