"“I entrust sailors, fishermen, and all those in
difficulty on the seas faraway from home, to the motherly protection of Mary, Star of the Sea, says Pope Francis in a “Tweet” posted on his account @Pontifex_en, this Sunday July 9, 2017, Sea Sunday.
On this occasion, the Vatican published a Message of the Dicastery for the Integral Human Development Service, signed by its Prefect, Cardinal Peter Turkson.
The Message is addressed to chaplains, volunteers, friends and supporters of the Apostleship of the Sea, on the occasion of this annual Sea Sunday.
It stresses the importance of protecting the rights of those working at sea, as expressed in the Maritime Labor Convention of 2006.
The Message also announces the 24th World Congress of the Apostleship of the Sea, which will be devoted to fishing and fisheries, and will be held in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, in October 2017."
