“The issue of birth rate is very close to my heart. Indeed, each gift of a child reminds us that God has faith in humanity, as underlined by the motto “Be there, younger, more future”. Our “being there is no result: God wanted us, he has a great and unique plan for each of us, without exception. From this perspective, it is important to meet and work together to promote the birth rate with realism, clairvoyance and. courage”.
