@busy_bee_me Prayers for him.

I invite everyone to pray for the war-torn people of Ukraine and for all those who suffer due to this war and every conflict in the world, so that the long-awaited gift of peace may shine in our days.

It’s very pertinent and beautiful during Lent: the fourteen Stations of the Cross! You walk with Jesus on the road to Calvary. Something tells me your parish probably has them. @thegnewsroom

I have received the greatly troubling news regarding an increase in tensions between Cuba and the United States of America, two neighboring countries. I echo the message of the Cuban bishops, inviting all responsible parties to promote a sincere and effective dialogue, in order to avoid violence and every action that could increase the suffering of the dear Cuban people.

Here’s an essential of Catholic life: Sunday Mass. That’s not just a devotional practice, that’s an expectation! It’s not an empty resolution. If we want to get our lives back in order, if we want to obey Jesus, we get to Sunday Mass. @thegnewsroom

Thank you, Jesus.

As I prepare for my Apostolic Journey to Türkiye, I would like this Letter to encourage the whole Church to renew her enthusiasm for the profession of faith. For centuries, this enduring confession of faith has been the common heritage of Christians, and it deserves to be professed and understood in ever new and relevant ways. #ChristianUnity #ApostolicLetter https://t.co/a6taKKWTvq

Christians do not call burial places “necropolises”, that is, “cities of the dead”, but “cemeteries”, which literally means “sleeping places”, places where one rests, awaiting the resurrection.

On the Solemnity of All Saints, Pope Leo on St. John Henry Newman: "...after mature deliberation and with certain knowledge, and by the fullness of the apostolic power, we declare Saint John Henry Newman Doctor of the Universal Church."

[Cardinal Dolan @CardinalDolan]

I love the season of autumn! It's an invitation to us, a call to a conversion of heart. Our Jewish neighbors celebrate their holy days during this time when nature is changing because the Lord invites all of us to change. Jesus didn't forget that message, the Church didn't forget it, and neither should we. @thegnewsroom

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I follow with sorrow the news of new, violent attacks that have struck several cities and civilian infrastructure in #Ukraine, causing the deaths of innocent people, including children. My heart joins in the suffering of the population, which for years has lived in anguish and deprivation. I renew my appeal to put an end to the violence, to stop the destruction, and to open hearts to dialogue and #Peace!

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The Church dedicates the coming month of October to the #HolyRosary. I invite everyone to pray the Rosary for #Peace each day of the month—individually, in the family, in community. On Saturday, October 11, at 6:00 PM, we will pray the Rosary together in St. Peter’s Square, during the vigil of the Jubilee of Marian Spirituality, also recalling the anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Council.

51 years ago today me and my co-postulants entered Novitiate as a Daughter of St. Paul. Our Mother General, Maestra Ignatia, was present. May God be praise!!!

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I am deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and injury caused by the military attack on the Holy Family Catholic Church in #Gaza. I assure the parish community of my spiritual closeness. I commend the souls of the deceased to the loving mercy of Almighty God, and pray for their families and the injured. I renew my call for an immediate ceasefire. Only dialogue and reconciliation can ensure enduring peace!
