Good morning, good morning, good morning.
A brief greeting before leaving for the next stop on this apostolic journey. Sorry, I am speaking in Italian; here at home we speak Italian.
Good morning. Well, on this beautiful day, we are now ready to travel to the next stop on this visit. I am now heading to Chiclayo. And we want to continue in that same spirit of joy. I give thanks to the Lord for so many blessings — for faith, for life, and for respect for the human dignity of each person. May we live out this unity, just as we are living it here in Lima these days.
May the Lord bless all of you; may his presence in you — in your hearts and in your families — always be alive and fill you with hope, and may we continue to work together every day.
May the Lord be with you. May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, come down upon you.
Have a very good day, thank you very much.
