Pope Leo XIV receives participants in Holiness in History conference

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV met with participants of the Holiness in History conference at the Vatican Apostolic Palace on the final day of the event. Organized by the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints, the conference explored the relationship between holiness and history.

During the audience, the Pope thanked the officials, consultants, speakers, and members of the Dicastery for their work on the causes of saints. He noted that canonized holiness requires proof through authentic and credible testimonies. He highlighted the essential role played by diocesan historical commissions and the Dicastery's rapporteurs and consultants in managing ancient causes.

The Pope mentioned that Pope Pius XI, an authoritative historian, established the Historical Section within the former Sacred Congregation of Rites to apply historical-critical methods to the causes of saints. Leo XIV stated that situating a saint's testimony within their specific historical context is vital, as saints listen to the calls of their time to combine faith with history.
