Pope praises diversity in video for Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

RELIGIONS NEWS AGENCY (REDNA) – The Pope has released a video for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, 18-25 January, in praise of diversity.

With reference to work between different Christian denominations he said: “We are guided by the Holy Spirit, abundance, variety, diversity, never cause conflict.
