This past May, Fr. Dominic Verner, O.P., assistant professor of theology and @PCAthletics chaplain, led student athletes from four Division I teams on a pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago in Spain.

Together they walked more than 160 miles to the tomb of the St. James: embracing physical challenges, deepening their faith, and strengthening their connection as a team.

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, pour out Your benedictions upon the Holy Church, upon its priests, and upon all its children. Sustain the just, convert the sinners, assist the dying, deliver the souls in purgatory, and extend over all hearts the sweet empire of Your love. Amen.

Pope Leo XIV came to the aid of a man who fainted while waiting to shake hands with the pontiff after a general audience in St Peter's Square on Wednesday amid a record spring heat wave in Italy.

The pope kneeled down by the man as Vatican staff provided assistance.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In the era of #ArtificialIntelligence, when human dignity is threatened by new forms of dehumanization, ours is the pressing duty to remain profoundly human. We must lovingly safeguard the grandeur of humanity bestowed upon us and revealed in its fullness in Christ, the splendor of which no machine can ever replace. #MagnificaHumanitas

5 years ago, I told God, “I don’t want to do a building project. I will only do one if you open the door and turn on the lights. Today, we started the first phase on a major renovation of our church. Thanks be to God and the wonderfully generous support of our benefactors!

On the day I was entrusted with the ministry of the Successor of Peter, exactly one year ago, the Church celebrated the Supplication to Our Lady of the Holy Rosary of #Pompeii. I therefore had to come here, to place my service under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary. #PastoralVisit https://t.co/uui9x3qPhh

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

From the beginning of my pontificate, I have thought about a journey in #Africa. I thank the Lord for granting me the opportunity to undertake it, as Shepherd, in order to encounter and encourage the people of God, as well as to offer a message of #Peace at a time in history marked by wars and serious and frequent violations of international law. #GeneralAudience
