Let us begin Holy Week together with Pope Leo XIV, as he celebrates Palm Sunday Mass at St. Peter's Square. ➡️This Sunday, March 29 at 11:30 am ET | 8:30 am PT On Salt + Light TV slmedia.org #PalmSunday #SLMedia #HolyWeek #SaltAndLightTV #PopeLeoXIV

Pope Leo XIV: "As we continue our Lenten journey, let us ask the Lord to grant us the grace to imitate Our Blessed Mother in her total 'yes' to the Lord, and so open our hearts to his will for our lives." #Vatican #Lent

We celebrate the Solemnity of the #Annunciation of the Lord nine months before we celebrate the Lord’s birth. On this day, we celebrate His incarnation in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary. #HailMary

Angelus March 1: Pope Leo XIV urged “reasonable, authentic and responsible dialogue” as Iran-Israel hostilities escalated with U.S. involvement. He appealed to stop the spiral of violence. 🎥 CNS photo/Vatican Media

Transfigured Jesus, help us trust in the extraordinary significance of our ordinary lives. May we have hearts that trust you are at work when our vision fails us, and eyes to see when you grace us with sight of your work. Amen. @CCCB_CECC

“Speak Lord! Your Servant is Listening” is the theme of the Spring Congress Circuit presented by members of the diocesan ministry team at three locations - March 11 in Saskatoon, April 18 in Watson, April 25 in Kindersley. SEE: rcdos.ca/spring-congres…

This March, we join Pope Leo in praying for disarmament and peace. Let us pray that nations move toward effective disarmament, particularly nuclear disarmament, and that world leaders choose the path of dialogue and diplomacy instead of violence. #PrayTogether #PrayForPeace

Pope Leo XIV expresses “deep concern” over recent events in the Middle East and Iran. “May diplomacy recover its role, and may the good of peoples be promoted, peoples who long for peaceful coexistence founded on justice." vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2…

Advocating for the unborn is fulfilling the Lord's command to serve him in the most vulnerable, Pope Leo told #MarchforLife. He encouraged everyone to "ensure that life is respected in all of its stages" thru appropriate efforts at every level, including dialogue with leaders.

I was deeply saddened to learn of the kidnapping of priests, faithful, and students in Nigeria and Cameroon. I feel great pain, above all for the many young men and women who have been abducted and for their distressed families. I make a heartfelt appeal for the immediate release of the hostages and urge the competent authorities to take appropriate and timely decisions to ensure their release. Let us #PrayTogether for these brothers and sisters of ours, and that churches and schools may always and everywhere remain places of safety and hope.

Today, dioceses around the world are celebrating World Youth Day. On the feast of Christ the King, Let us #PrayTogether that every young person may discover the beauty and joy of following him, the Lord, and dedicating him or herself to his Kingdom of love, justice and peace.
