Homily of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV

Dear brothers and sisters,

For millennia, across the earth, peoples have gazed up at the sky, giving names to the silent stars, and seeing images therein.

Message by Archbishop Charles Jude Scicluna

On this holy Christmas night, we celebrate the birth of a baby. The eyes of faith teach us that this baby is none other than God made man.

The author of the letter to the Hebrews tells us that God spoke to his people various times, in many ways, but then, in the fullness of time, he sent his Son (Hebrews 1:1-2)… Read more »

The Pope at Angelus: May all children of the world live in peace

Fourth Sunday of Advent

21/12/2025   St Peter's Square, the Vatican

Message of Pope Leo XIV

Dear brothers and sisters, good afternoon!

Today, on the fourth Sunday of Advent, the liturgy invites us to meditate on the figure of Saint Joseph. In particular, we see him at the moment when God reveals his mission in a dream (cf. Mt 1:18-24).
