In his catechesis, Leo XIV called on the faithful to take part in the Eucharist on the weekly feast day. Sunday is both "foundation and kernel”, the day with which we mark Christ's resurrection and his work of salvation. The pope also addressed a thought to young people, newlyweds, and the sick, ahead of the Feast of the Assumption.
The new pope is U.S. Cardinal Robert Prevost, 69 years old, who had previously served as the prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops after his time as a missionary in Peru. “God loves everyone, help us build bridges of dialogue to be reached by His love. We want to be a synodal Church, one that walks, always seeks peace, charity, and is close, especially to those who suffer.”
