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.

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, âI donât 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 vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/eâŠ

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

AprÚs l'agression choquante subie par notre compatriote religieuse à Jérusalem, je lui ai exprimé ma vive émotion, mon soutien et mes voeux de prompt rétablissement.
L'auteur de cet acte odieux a Ă©tĂ© arrĂȘtĂ©.
La sanction doit ĂȘtre exemplaire pour que cessent les actes anti-chrĂ©tiens qui se multiplient en Terre sainte et que la France, attachĂ©e Ă sa mission historique de protection des communautĂ©s et lieux saints catholiques, ne peut en aucun cas tolĂ©rer.
