POPE FRANCIS SENDS LETTER OF THANKS TO HCBC PRESIDENT

 

Pope Francis has sent a letter of thanks to President of the Hungarian Catholic Bishops’ Conference (HCBC) András Veres for his Hungary visit in late April.
The letter made available by the HCBC press department on Wednesday shows that the pope thanked the love he said he had experienced during his stay and all the efforts that made his visit possible. He expressed hope that the hard work coupled with pastoral services will “bring fruit abundantly”. He asked Veres to preserve peace and unity and expressed hope that their efforts will contribute to everyone’s growth in their faith in Jesus Christ, and the joy of belonging to the church.
