“Each of us can be a little light,” said Leo XIV
Pope Leo The declaration was made at the Angelus this Sunday (7).
“Let us recognize that the course of history has not yet been written by the powerful. Let us put our thoughts and energies at the service of a God who comes to reign not to dominate us, but to liberate us,” added the pontiff.
Robert Prévost emphasized that “a new day has begun” and therefore “we must get up and walk towards the light”.
The Pope’s appeal comes after his participation on Saturday (6) in the “Concert with the Poor” in Sala Paulo VI, in which the Canadian singer Michael Bublé specially participated and which brought together an audience of around 8 thousand people.
The 2,000 needy people served in the front rows of the Paulo VI Hall received a dinner and a Christmas gift during the event.
Unlike his predecessor Francisco, who never participated in concerts because “it was not his style”, Leo XIV followed the show with great interest and joy.
“Music is a bridge that brings us to God,” said the current Catholic leader enthusiastically. .
