Quotes
Dear brothers, dear sisters, the Sepulcher of Christ is open. Is this not an invitation to open all the prison-tombs scattered here and there where so many of our brothers and sisters languish who, very often, claim their innocence and whose cry does not seem to be heard by those who could help them to resuscitate? The people of Côte d'Ivoire are waiting for you to build bridges, which would undoubtedly support the social climate and encourage the development of those who question the future.
