"Ante todo somos discípulos" (por León XIV).

Pope Leo XIV reminded those preparing for episcopal consecration that they must first and foremost be disciples. The remarks were directed at the next group of men chosen to become bishops, who are currently attending a course before their consecration and subsequent assignments.

The Pope emphasized the importance of remembering their vocation, mission, and place within the Church. According to José Luis Aberasturi for InfoCatólica, the message serves to ensure these future pastors do not lose their way or deviate from their Catholic identity.
