We wanted to share some more photos sent to us from our Diocesan pilgrims from today’s General Audience with Pope Leo XIV in St. Peter’s Square.
During his weekly address, Pope Leo told the tens of thousands gathered that salvation comes from being strong enough to ask God for help.
“No one can save themselves. Life is ‘fulfilled’ not when we are strong, but when we learn how to receive,” Pope Leo XIV said.
During the audience, the pope also offered special prayers for all the students and teachers who recently returned to school or were about to start a new school year.
“Pray for them, through the intercession of the Blesseds – and soon saints – Pier Giorgio Frassati and Carlo Acutis, for the gift of a deep faith in their journey of maturation,” the pope said just days before he was scheduled to preside over the canonizations of the two young Italians.
