Ministering to seafarers and advocating for their rights and dignity can help bring these often invisible workers to the fore, said Cardinal Michael Czerny, prefect of the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development.A container ship crosses the Gulf of Suez towards the Red Sea before entering the Suez Canal.
"In all of humanity, seafarers are among the least visible members. Yet, it is through their hidden efforts that many of our necessities reach us," he wrote in the message, which the Vatican released on June 24."They experience the boundless beauty of nature in the seas, yet they also encounter physical, spiritual and social darkness."
The cardinal praised those who advocate for the dignity and rights of seafarers, such as the volunteers, chaplains and members of local churches at the ports who engage in seafarer ministry.
