Much interest in Pope’s encyclical at UN, says diplomat
August 14, 2015
Interest in Laudato Si’, Pope Francis’s encyclical on the care of creation, is high at the United Nations, said Archbishop Bernardito Auza, the Holy See’s permanent observer at UN offices in New York.
“I can say with certainty that the reception of the encyclical in the UN context was great,” he told Vatican Radio. “I would say that some of the people to whom I have talked could cite passages from the encyclical, which is an indication not only that they have talked about it, but that many have read it and have enjoyed reading it.”
