The values expressed in sports can unite people, break down barriers, and create spaces bringing together cultures and generations. At a time when competition can become empty rivalry, and exclusion leaves many out, it is important that we rediscover the true meaning of sports as a school of fraternity, respect, and solidarity. In this month’s prayer, the Holy Father invites us to pray “for the values of sports” so we “discover in sport a universal language that brings cultures together, unites peoples, and sows respect, solidarity and personal growth.”
