He then urged the faithful to think “of the poor who have become invisible, whose cry of pain is drowned out by the general indifference of a very busy and distracted society. When we think about poverty we cannot forget modesty. Poverty is modest, it is hidden. We must seek it with courage.”

“Let us think of how many are oppressed, tired, marginalized, of the victims of wars and of those who leave their land risking their lives, of those who are without bread, without work and without hope. So much daily poverty. And they are not one, two or three, they are a multitude, the poor are a multitude.”

“Let us not bury the Lord’s goods! Let us make charity circulate, let us share our bread, let us multiply love,” the Holy Father reiterated.

In this sense, he insisted that “poverty is a scandal” and asked to pray “so that each one of us, according to the gift received and the mission entrusted to him, commits to ‘making charity bear fruit’ and becoming close to to some poor person.”
