Together, we will spend time in conversation, prayer and reflection as we open ourselves to the work of the Spirit; enlivening creation, gracing our lives, and empowering us to collaborate in the work of renewing the face of the earth.”

Today, Pope Leo offered a meditation on the mystery of the Lord’s particular love for the poor and the summons for all disciples to participate in His compassion and solidarity by our own embrace of those who are poor in any sense of that term.
United with the witness of Pope Francis, Our Holy Father Leo XIV has offered a gospel vision of faith hope and love in a time of violence and division. I encourage all of us to make this important reflection a part of our own spiritual reading.
The Apostolic Exhortation, Dilexi te, may be found here.
