''You don't come out of crises the same way—you come out better or worse, but never alone. It's time to weather the blow and stand firm on the essentials.'' Pope Francis #PapaLeone #PapaFrancesco #PopeLeo #PopeFrancis

Replying to @Pontifex
''Assured of God’s love, go out to the world so that, “by the mercy shown to you”, they – your friends, co-workers, neighbours, countrymen, everyone... – “may now receive the mercy of God” (cf. Rom 11:31). It is by his mercy that we are saved.'' Pope Francis #WorldYouthDay

Let us #PrayTogether for the proper use of wealth, that not succumbing to the temptation of selfishness, it may always be put at the service the common good and solidarity of those who have less. Be a part of this prayer: popesprayer.va/praywiththepo

Il Papa nella Messa per i defunti al Cimitero Verano chiede di pregare per coloro a cui "l'assurda violenza della guerra" ha strappato la vita: "Possano le lacrime di tante madri, di tanti bambini, di tanti anziani toccare le coscienze di chi ha potere di far tacere le armi!"

“Someone who says, ‘I’m against abortion,’ but says, ‘I’m in favor of the death penalty,’ is not really pro-life.” “Someone who says, ‘I’m against abortion,’ but says, ‘I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States,’ is not really pro-life.” — Pope Leo XIV

Tackling branches rather than roots đŸȘŸ You can now read our full response to the Autumn Budget on our website. "As Pope Leo highlighted in Dilexi Te, “We need to be increasingly committed to resolving the structural causes of poverty”. Andy Burnham’s government promised to challenge the system in its commitment to the ‘working person’, but this budget, while positive in many respects, falls short of that ambition." csan.org.uk/news/tackling-br

"Today’s Tolkien enthusiasts seek to be ring-wielders, enamoured of the ring’s promise to assure ‘invisibility, control over other minds, and the prolongation of life’. They resemble Tolkien’s Saruman, whose epithet ‘the Wise’ is ironic. Saruman affirms: ‘We must have power, power to order all things as we will’. Seeing this tendency at work in post-war reconstruction, Tolkien declared in a 1958 speech, ‘Saruman has many descendants.’"

It's a feature of our time that, turning on the radio while getting the breakfast things out, you might hear terms such as 'Palantir', 'Istar', 'Mordor' and 'orcs' on the morning news.

“
the souls of the virtuous are in the hands of God, no torment shall ever touch them. In the eyes of the unwise, they did appear to die, their going looked like a disaster, their leaving us like annihilation; but they are in peace.” Wisdom 3: 1-3 (JB) #allsouls

The beatitudes are about more than inner disposition, vital as that is. The children of God have got work to do, called to be justice-seekers and peacemakers, flowing from inner holiness, which will provoke opposition from those at odds with God’s kingdom. #AllSaintsDay

''We need to be artisans of peace, for building peace is a craft that demands serenity, creativity, sensitivity and skill. Sowing peace all around us: that is holiness.'' Pope Francis, Gaudete et Exsultate, 89. #PopeFrancis #PapaFrancisco #PapaFrancesco

On artificial intelligence, Pope Leo XIV says, “No one can be reduced to productivity, to cognitive performance, or to mere data.” The dignity of work is on the ballot Tuesday. Vote for workers in the age of AI.

NEW: Detroit Archbishop Edward Weisenburger, an ally of Pope Leo XIV, stood on a sidewalk in Clark Park on Friday holding a sign that read “Todos Somos Familia,” after days of reports that ICE agents were targeting the city’s immigrant neighborhoods. “I don’t really believe in a polite religion that maintains the status quo for people in power,” he told the Detroit Free Press. The vigil came eight days after twelve American bishops prayed over President Trump in the Oval Office, a moment the White House filmed and posted online. thelettersfromleo.com/p/detr

The Solemnity of All Saints, which we celebrate today, invites us to share in the joy of that countless family of men and women who, following the Lord Jesus, have made their lives a gift to God and to their neighbors.

In recent days, a humanitarian operation has been carried out to assist the civilian population in the city of Oleshky. I hope that the cooperation between the parties, which made this necessary humanitarian act possible, will strengthen the desire for dialogue and lead to new concrete peace initiatives. Let us entrust to Mary, Queen of Peace and of All Saints, all those throughout the world who are suffering because of war.

Celebramos a Todos los Santos y Santas en la Iglesia catĂłlica. Leemos en las misas las bienaventuranzas. Son “la carta de navegaciĂłn” del Reino de Dios, es decir, son la declaraciĂłn de principios de quien dice ser seguidor del proyecto de JesĂșs. Es un evangelio desafiante

Pope Francis: Here’s a magisterial teaching in my official capacity as pope that you don’t like Catholic: We are not bound to accept the pope’s merely personal opinions Pope Leo XIV: I’m voting in my private capacity as an American citizen Catholic: You ceased to be a private person when you were elected, you are the pope in everything you do

Pope Leo, by voting, has reminded the Catholic community of the “right and also the duty to use their free vote to further the common good” (Gaudium et Spes, 75). The church won’t tell you who to vote for, but there’s a lot in that little phrase to help you discern.
