The complete letter from Argentine politicians to Pope Francis
Dear Pope Francis:
On this tenth anniversary of your pontificate, we, Argentine men and women from different spheres of public life, from different religious, political and ideological backgrounds, want to express our admiration and closeness for your work in favor of Humanity, particularly people excluded and poor peoples, listen to your firm defense of world peace and your permanent promotion of an Integral Ecology that allows the cry of Mother Earth and the Human Being in the face of destructive situations that threaten peoples and nature.
We Argentines and Argentines love you very much. We value and owe your tenacious work for peace, justice and integral human development throughout the world. We know the resistance that your work generates among those who may see interests that are not legitimate affected. Although we desire and look forward to your visit, we trust in your wisdom to say yes and eventually when.
Thank you for what you have done and done.
Those of us who have faith, pray for you; the rest, we accompany you with love and trust.
