Pope Leo XIV visits UNESCO headquarters
Pope Leo XIV visited the UNESCO headquarters in Paris on Friday, September 25, marking the first papal visit to the organization since 1980. During his visit, the pope addressed diplomats, academics, and youth delegates, placing human dignity at the center of education, science, culture, and technology. In his speech, the pope warned that human dignity is often overlooked in favor of efficiency and productivity during the era of artificial intelligence. He noted a paradox where intelligence is attributed to computational systems while human relations risk being impoverished by dehumanization. He urged leaders to build peace through justice, truth, dialogue, and trust. Upon arriving at the Pavillon d’Honneur, the pope was welcomed by UNESCO Director-General Khaled Ahmed El-Enany Ali Ezz and Msgr. Roberto Campisi, the Vatican's permanent observer. The pope held a bilateral meeting with the director-general, signed the guestbook, and exchanged gifts.

Pope Leo XIV tells pilgrims in Lourdes: You will leave as missionaries of hope
Pope Leo XIV urged pilgrims at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes to act as missionaries of hope during a Mass on Sunday, September 27. Addressing faithful from France and around the world, the pope called for conversion and penance for a world that is going wrong. During his homily, the pope described the pilgrimage as an opportunity to rekindle faith in homes and parishes. He told the faithful to take the consolation found at the sanctuary back to their neighbors, families, and the people of France. He noted that the call to repentance is a central part of the message the Virgin Mary entrusted to Saint Bernadette. The pope also spoke to the sick and suffering, stating they hold an irreplaceable place in the life of the Church. He invited them to view their suffering as part of the redemptive work of Christ. He encouraged pilgrims to be active witnesses of divine strength and tenderness in their own countries, dioceses, and families.
