His Excellency, Andry Rajoelina
President of the Republic of Madagascar

As I leave Madagascar to continue my Apostolic journey to Mauritius, I renew my deep gratitude to Your Excellency, the government and the beloved people of Madagascar for your warm welcome and generous hospitality. Invoking abundant divine blessings upon all of you, I offer the assurance of my prayers for peace and harmony in the nation.
