Pope Francis: dignified work edifies society
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis highlighted the role of dignified work in the integral development of society on Wednesday. His remarks came during the weekly General Audience, in words of greeting to Italy’s Federazione Maestri del Lavoro – an organization of veteran laborers and professionals over the age of 50 with at least 25 years’ experience in their respective fields, who have shown exemplary skill, diligence, and moral character throughout their careers.
The Federation is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its founding.
“Let this recurrence contribute to the encouragement of social and economic inclusion, especially among the weakest levels of the population,” Pope Francis said.
