Pope's prayer for Holocaust Remembrance Day

CWN - January 28, 2013

Pope Benedict XVI called attention to International Remembrance Day on January 27, praying that the horrors of the Holocaust would never be repeated.

At the conclusion of his regular Sunday audience, the Pope said: “The memory of this enormous tragedy that so severely struck mainly the Jewish people should represent for all a constant warning so that the horrors of the past are not repeated, so that every form of hatred and racism is overcome, and so that the respect and dignity of the human person is promoted.”
