Bangui, 16 December, 2021 / 9:41 pm (ACI Africa).
The Cardinal in the Central African Republic (CAR) has called upon the people of God in the country to foster mutual respect and an attitude of free speech even those deemed “social monsters … certainly have something to say.”
In a message shared with ACI Africa Thursday, December 16, Dieudonné Cardinal Nzapalainga underscores the need for unity in diversity in the country.
“Journeying together does not mean destroying our differences, but rather considering and respecting them,” Cardinal Nzapalainga says in the message delivered after the annual pilgrimage to the national Shrine of Our Lady of Ngoukomba in his Metropolitan See of Bangui.
The member of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit (Spiritans) adds, “Journeying together does not destroy our differences but implies acceptance and respect for the other. We are walking towards a goal.”
To journeying together effectively, the Cardinal notes, “it is essential to invite all the sons and daughters of the country to communicate. All of them, including those who could be considered social monsters, because they certainly have something to say.”
