On the Feast of the Holy Innocents, the Pope posted this tweet on his account @pontifex
Newsroom (29/11/2021 9:41 AM, Gaudium Press) Every year the day the Church commemorates the feast of the Holy Innocents. They are the first martyrs, sacrificed by Herod out of hatred for the Redeemer. On the occasion, Pope Francis sent a message via Twitter:
The new Herods of our time devour the innocence of our children under the oppression of illegal slave labour, prostitution, exploitation, wars and forced emigration. Let us #PrayTogether today for these children and defend them. #HolyInnocents
Pope Francis has dealt with several of his messages with the scourges pointed out in his tweet, currently wiping out the innocence of children.
