''From this city, marked in the course of history by so much suffering and bloodshed, I ask almighty God to have mercy on the sins committed against humanity, human dignity and freedom, also by the children of the Catholic Church, and to foster in all the desire for mutual forgiveness,'' the pope said during the mass at the monastery.
"Iz ovog grada čija je povijest obilježena velikim patnjama i krvoprolićem, molim svemogućeg Boga da se smiluje grijesima počinjenim protiv čovječnosti, ljudskog dostojanstva i slobode, počinjenih također i od djece Katoličke crkve, i da u svima potakne želju za oprostom" rekao je Papa tijekom mise ispred samostana Petrićevac.
