Pope Leo XIV at Angelus: “May the Lord inspire choices of dialogue and peace”

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV asked for prayers for peace during the Angelus prayer on October 25. He called for people to join in spiritual prayer on October 27 with religious leaders gathering in Assisi. This meeting marks the 40th anniversary of the meeting originally convened by Pope John Paul II.

The Pope stated that wars cause death, destruction, and global impoverishment. He asked that the Lord inspire choices of dialogue and peace.

Medical professionals advised the Pope against a planned helicopter trip on October 27 as a precaution. This follows his recent surgery to remove a lung adenocarcinoma, though his recovery is reported as regular.
