Pope Leo XIV preaches at Notre Dame

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV preached during Vespers at Notre Dame Cathedral on September 25. During the service, the Pope described modern society as hyperconnected and loud, noting a lack of depth and meaning in the current era.

He suggested that the simplicity of Christian rites, such as song and liturgy, offers an oasis of peace rather than an escape from reality. The Pope stated that the Christian community is not a closed space meant to protect itself from the present age, but is instead called to engage with a world shaped by both human goodness and suffering.
