Transcript
00:01Pope Leo XIV visited a Caritas Iran welfare center in a deprived area of Madrid on Saturday.
00:09Pope spoke to workers and users at the center's canteen who were mainly migrants.
00:15One of them is Kandri, who explained to the Pope how he found respect from the people at the center.
00:24During the pandemic, I felt lost and had left everything behind.
00:30I didn't even know where to start, but I found people who welcomed me and looked at me with respect.
00:40Caritas, a charity organization funded by the Catholic Church, say that the center helped over 2,500 people in 2025.
00:48In his address to the center, Pope spoke out against prejudice due to political or economic position
01:00that led to unfair generalization and misleading conclusions.
01:07The fact that the exercise of charity is scorned or ridiculed as if it were the fixation of a few
01:15and not the indecent core of the Church's mission makes me think that it is always necessary to reread the
01:23Gospel
01:23to avoid the risk of replacing it with a worldly mentality.
01:32Leo visited Spain dozens of times before as a priest, but this visit was a fuss by Pope in 15
01:40years.
01:40I since!
01:42The same time was.
01:42I've had leases.
01:43Just the building.
01:44Here we found him for the same Water.
01:44I should never just need tierrahargiclyn to remove the Mac Moines.
01:44Let him get paper for $ five million on the Bronx.
