Cardinal Parolin in Malakal
The Vatican Secretary of State who arrived in South Sudan on August 14 on a four-day visit has comforted returnees and refugees in the Catholic Diocese of Malakal, who were displaced by the Sudan war that started on April 15 and expressed the closeness of the Holy Father with them.
In his address to the returnees and refugees during his visit to the South Sudanese Diocese on Tuesday, August 15, Pietro Cardinal Parolin thanked the local authorities and Bishop Stephen Nyodho Ador Majwok for facilitating the realization of the visit.
“I am very glad to be here and I thank the authorities and the Bishop for having planned this visit to the place where you are staying, coming from Sudan,” Cardinal Parolin told the returnees and refugees who gathered at their reception center in Malakal.
