02 February 2020 "Today the Day for Life is celebrated in Italy, which has the theme 'Open the doors to life'. I join the message of the bishops and hope that this Day will be an opportunity to renew the commitment to safeguard and protect human life from the beginning until its natural end ". Pope Francis said so in the greeting after the Angelus in San Pietro.

"It is also necessary to combat any form of violation of dignity, even when technology or the economy is at stake, opening the doors to new forms of solidarity fraternity", added the pontiff.


"Immobilism does not suit Christian and church"
"Christian life requires dynamism and willingness to walk, letting oneself be guided by the Holy Spirit. Immobilism is not suitable for Christian witness and the mission of the Church". So the Holy Father at the Angelus.

"The world - he said - needs Christians who let themselves be moved, who never tire of walking on the streets of life, to bring everyone the consoling word of Jesus. Every baptized person has received a vocation to announcement, to mission The parishes and the various ecclesial communities are called to encourage the commitment of young people, families and the elderly, so that everyone can have a Christian experience, living the life and mission of the Church as protagonists ".
