"Pope Francis landed in Geneva Thursday for a daytrip aimed at
bolstering ecumenical relations, saying off the bat that division among
Christians is borne from worldliness, and Christ must be prioritized
over any differences that might get in the way of unity.
"In his first official speech after touching down, the Pope said
Christians are called to walk together along the path of the Spirit,
which means 'rejecting worldliness' and 'opting for a mindset of service
and growing in forgiveness.'
"Pope Francis spoke to participants in an ecumenical prayer gathering
during his June 21 visit to Geneva for the 70th anniversary of the World
Council of Churches."
A recent National Catholic Register article reported on Pope Francis' presentation at this prayer gathering.
