Pope Leo XIV told pilgrims at the Lourdes shrine to return to their homes and parishes as missionaries of hope. During a Mass at the grotto, the Pope addressed travelers from France and around the world, describing the gathered group as the universal face of the Church.

In his homily, the Pope called for conversion and repentance, noting that the message entrusted to Saint Bernadette emphasizes the urgency of turning toward God.
