When we seem to be sinking, overcome by adverse forces, when everything appears bleak and we feel alone and weak, Jesus is always with us, stronger than any power of evil. In every storm, He comes to us and repeats: “I am here with you: do not be afraid.” With Him, we can get up after every fall and not allow ourselves to be stopped by any tempest. We therefore advance with courage and trust. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

For decades, billions of gallons of sewage and industrial waste have been dumped into the Tijuana River. Recent research shows this chronically contaminated watershed in Southern California is also polluting the air.

We are all our brother's and sister's keeper. In God’s great family, no one is ever a stranger or forgotten, no matter how little they may be. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

"Today the Lord has chosen all of us to be the workers who bring peace to this land! Let us all say a prayer to the Lord that peace will truly reign among us, that as we release these white doves—symbol of peace—that God’s peace will be upon all of us, upon this land, and keep us all united in His peace. Praise the Lord!" Pope Leo XIV launched this heartfelt appeal for peace as he released a dove at a meeting in the northwestern Cameroonian city of Bamenda. vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2…

Reading The Letter from Birmingham Jail changed my life and I will never stop fighting for justice.

#Peace is everyone’s responsibility, beginning with civil authorities. To govern means to love one’s own country as well as neighboring countries. The commandment “love your neighbor as yourself” is equally applicable to international relations! #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Speaking at a meeting dedicated to peace in Bamenda, Cameroon, Pope Leo XIV warns against the "masters of war" who pretend not to acknowledge that "it only takes a moment to destroy, yet often a lifetime is not enough to rebuild" and who spend billions on weapons but dedicate nothing to helping people heal. vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2…

#Peace is not something we must invent: it is something we must embrace by accepting our neighbor as a brother or sister. We do not choose our brothers and sisters: we must simply accept one another! We are one family, inhabiting the same home: this wonderful planet that ancient cultures have cared for over millennia. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology. This is a serious escalation as the institutional Catholic Church is coming together to defend its pontiff from the White House’s political attack.

Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

U.S. Bishops’ Chairman on Doctrine Issues Clarification on Just War Theory “When Pope Leo XIV speaks as supreme pastor of the universal Church, he is not merely offering opinions on theology, he is preaching the Gospel and exercising his ministry as the Vicar of Christ.”

I'm back leading my colleagues on the Senate floor to call out Trump and Republicans’ efforts to suppress the vote. Representatives don’t pick their voters — voters pick their representatives. We’re making sure of it. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Can we truly start our lives over again? Yes! The Lord’s response, so full of love, fills our hearts with hope. No matter how weighed down we are by pain or sin: the crucified One carries all these burdens with us and for us. No matter how discouraged we are by our own weaknesses: it is precisely then that God manifests His strength, the God who has raised Christ from the dead in order to give life to the world. Each one of us can experience the freedom of new life that comes from faith in the Redeemer. #ApostolicJourney #Algeria vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Hey #JDVance - stop talking about his holiness @Pontifex and leave the Catholic Church - you’re a better fit for “Christian” Nationalism at TP

God’s heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father’s heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God’s heart is with the little ones and the humble, and with them He builds up His Kingdom of love and peace day by day. Wherever there is love and service, God is there. #ApostolicJourney #Algeria

Democracy remains healthy "only when rooted in the moral law and a true vision of the human person," Pope Leo XIV said in a letter sent today to an international conference underway at the Vatican.
