Pope Francis on Holocaust: Let’s all say never again
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleVATICAN CITY — Pope Francis is inviting prayers and reflection about the “atrocity” of the Holocaust, urging people to vow in their heart “never again.”
In remarks to the public in St. Peter’s Square, Francis notes that tomorrow is the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi’s Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp.
He says that “in the face of this huge tragedy, this atrocity, indifference is not admissible and memory is a duty.” He says that tomorrow “all are invited to take a moment for prayer and for reflection, each one saying in one’s own heart: never again, never again!”
The pope himself prayed on the camp’s memorial grounds during a 2016 pilgrimage to Poland.
