"Fratelli tutti" The new social encyclical of Pope Francis "Fratelli tutti", takes its name from a writing by St. Francis of Assisi, referring not only to his brothers, but to all the men and women of his time. The Pope once again takes his inspiration from this saint and addresses today all the sisters and brothers united for the future of humanity.
