Pope Leo XIV bringing serious uncle vibes to Castel Gandolfo. After the Angelus—and a ride through Piazza della Libertà in the miniature popemobile—the Pope met a family whose children came prepared with gifts and handmade drawings.
During the Angelus, Leo reflected on the Canaanite woman’s persistent faith, saying “God’s table is prepared for everyone” and calling Christians to reject discrimination and barriers. He also renewed his appeal for peace, urging an end to violence against Palestinian civilians in the West Bank and progress toward a two-state solution.
