"We come from all over the world, Africa, Asia, Latin America, but we have found that our experiences and concerns are similar. Poor social-economic conditions in our countries make life difficult for all. A serious problem is poverty which affects young people in particular. But this does not stop the Christian community from living in hope and nourishing its faith. One promising element for the future is the existence of good relations and reciprocal respect among believers and communities of different faiths and collaboration at times of national crisis."
