My thoughts are with all those affected by the horrible bus crash that took the life of a cadet in Sainte-Rose-de-Watford, Québec.
Thank you to all the first responders who rushed to the scene and continue to care for the injured. We wish them a full recovery.
Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Montenegro, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, United Kingdom, United States — thank you for your support. Light will prevail.
Reflection by Pope Leo XIV
"If you truly want to encounter the Risen Lord, then listen to His word, which is the Gospel of salvation. Reflect on your way of living, and seek justice in order to build a more humane world. Serve the poor, and so bear witness to the good that we would always like to receive from our neighbours. Be united with Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Adore Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, the source of eternal life. Study, work, and love according to the example of Jesus, the good Teacher who always walks beside us."
(Prayer Vigil at Jubilee of Youth, August 2, 2025)
There has been no harsher critic to possible U.S. military action in Iran than Pope Leo XIV:
“War is back in vogue and a zeal for war is spreading. The principle established after the Second World War, which prohibited nations from using force to violate the borders of others, has been completely undermined.
“Peace is no longer sought as a gift and a desirable good in itself, or in the pursuit of the establishment of the ordered universe willed by God, with a more perfect form of justice among men and women.”
“Instead, peace is sought through weapons as a condition for asserting one’s own dominion.
“This gravely threatens the rule of law, which is the foundation of all peaceful civil coexistence.”
We may never fully reconcile with the horrific, senseless violence that ripped through Tumbler Ridge this past week.
But we can find comfort in each other. We can look after each other. To those families who have lost loved ones: we mourn with you.
