We stand together as disciples sent to heal a wounded world, Pope tells Welby

From The Tablet-

Pope Francis has said he and the Archbishop of Canterbury must focus their joint witness on “prayer, peace and poverty”.

In an audience with Archbishop Justin Welby this morning, the Pope departed from his official text and spoke in English.


“Don’t forget the ‘three Ps’,” he said. “Prayer, peace and poverty. We must walk together.”
Earlier in his address Francis had said he and the archbishop must “stand together” in combating human trafficking – while divisions between Christians remained a scandal.


The Pope praised the leader of the Anglican Communion for his leadership on seeking to overcome trafficking and slavery.
