POPE FRANCIS IDENTIFY MORE CLOSELY WITH CHRIST

(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has sent a message to Catholics in Argentina ahead of a national collection day to raise money and finance activities in the poorest parts of his native country. The initiative known as ‘Mas por Menos,’ or More for Less, is supported by the Argentinian bishops and last year raised almost three million dollars. The collection takes place on September 8th and this year is being organized around the theme ‘We trust in your help’. 
In the message, signed by the Cardinal Secretary of State, Pope Francis encourages Catholics to make a commitment to solidarity based on their “faith in God who gave everything for us”. He invites all Argentinians to “identify themselves ever more closely with Christ” through prayer and the Sacraments. In that way, he says, they can find strength to offer their continuous and precious support to those most in need.
