Today, on the 33rd #Sunday in Ordinary Time, we celebrate the 9th World Day of the Poor. This year’s theme – “You are my hope” (Psalm 71:5) – comes from the Jubilee Year message of #PopeLeoXIV. It invites us to see the poor as witnesses to strong and steadfast hope and to work together for a mission that uplifts human dignity.
Pope Leo says in his message for the 2025 #WorldDayOfThePoor, “Let this #JubileeYear encourage the development of policies aimed at combatting forms of poverty both old and new, as well as implementing new initiatives to support and assist the poorest of the poor.”
The Holy Father also extends “appreciation for those initiatives that already exist, and for the efforts demonstrated daily on the international level by great numbers of men and women of good will.”
