Political representatives meet to discuss Pope Leo XIV's address to the Spanish Parliament
The Archdiocese of Toledo held a meeting on Friday, October 23, for public officials to reflect on the speech Pope Leo XIV delivered to the Spanish Parliament on June 8. Archbishop Francisco Cerro Chaves presided over the event at the Archbishop's Council Hall, joined by Bishop Francisco César García Magán, the auxiliary bishop of Toledo and secretary general of the Spanish Episcopal Conference.
Representatives from regional, provincial, municipal, and local institutions participated in the meeting. The Episcopal Vicariate for Laity, Family, and Life coordinated the event, with Episcopal Vicar Enrique del Álamo moderating the dialogue. The meeting was intended as a space for listening and dialogue rather than partisan confrontation. The Archdiocese organized the gathering to encourage calm reflection among those serving in public institutions regarding the Pope's call for politics to serve the person.
