This is the work of God, who knows that we need the food produced by the earth, that diverse and expressive reality that your ancestors called the “Pachamama” and that reflects the work of the Divine Providence by offering its gifts for Man’s sake. (scroll down for answer)
Today in a message commemorating the 10th anniversary of Amoris Laetitia — Pope Francis’s apostolic exhortation on marriage and the family — Pope Leo announced a meeting of the presidents of the world’s bishops’ conferences to take place in Rome in October.
