The Bishop of Cuenca addresses the common good in a weekly letter

The Bishop of Cuenca addressed the common good in a weekly letter to the people of his diocese. He discussed the importance of building a just and humane society, referencing themes from the recent visit of Pope Leo to Spain in June.

The Bishop noted that these topics are central to the first encyclical of Pope Leo, titled Magnifica humanitas. The document focuses on protecting the human person during the era of artificial intelligence. The Bishop cited Pope Leo XIII to explain that the proclamation of the Gospel must include the concrete lives of peoples.

In the first section of the encyclical, Pope Leo XIV states that Christians must look to God when humanity risks losing its identity. The Bishop noted that the Church seeks to help build a society that protects human dignity, promotes justice, and enables fraternity. The encyclical expresses a desire to collaborate with all people of good will to support human efforts for the common good.
