ST. ALBERT THE GREAT, BUILDER OF PEACE
VATICAN CITY, NOV 15, 2006 (VIS) - At the end of today's general audience, the Pope recalled the fact that today is the liturgical feast of St. Albert the Great, "who made ceaseless efforts to establish peace among the peoples of his time," he said,
"May his example," the Holy Father continued, "stimulate you, dear young people, to work for justice and build reconciliation." For the sick, may it be "an encouragement to confide in the Lord Who never abandons us in moments of trial," and for newlyweds, "a stimulation to find in the Gospel the joy to welcome and serve life, the priceless gift of God."
