Pope Francis has denounced Europe's treatment of migrants as as “disgusting, sinful and criminal.”
Faithful gather in St. Peter's Square during a mass celebrated by Pope Francis for the canonization of two new saints, Giovanni Battista Scalabrini and Artemide Zatti, at the Vatican, Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022.
He urged the faithful to consider the treatment of migrants, asking: ‘’Do we welcome them as brothers, or do we exploit them?”Francis said that Scalabrani showed “great vision,’’ by looking forward “to a world and a Church without barriers, where no one was a foreigner." And the pontiff called Zatti “a living example of gratitude” who devoted his life to serving others after being cured of tuberculosis.
Francis, himself the son of Italian immigrants to Argentina, has recalled being inspired by Zatti’s life while he was Jesuit provincial superior in Argentina, saying the numbers entering the order increased after he prayed for his intercession.
