The growing number of communities celebrating the International
Day of Peace attests to peoples’ deep yearning for a world at peace
with itself. As a priest, I aspire to be both a messenger of peace and
a peacemaker.

As I assume my responsibilities as President of the
United Nations General Assembly, I am acutely aware of the hopes and
expectations that billions of people around the world place in the
United Nations to put an end to war and senseless, man-made violence.
