INAUGRAL MESSAGE OF POPE LEO XIV
Peace be with you all!
Dearest brothers and sisters, this is
the first greeting of the risen Christ,
the good shepherd who laid down
his life for the flock of God.
I too would like this greeting of peace
to enter your hearts, to reach your families,
to all people, wherever they may be,
to all nations, to the whole earth.
Peace be with you!
This is the peace of the risen Christ
—a disarmed peace and a disarming
peace, humble and persevering.
It comes from God, God who loves
us all, unconditionally.
We still keep in our ears that weak,
but always courageous voice of
Pope Francis, who blessed Rome.
The Pope who blessed Rome gave his blessing to the world, to the whole
world, that morning of Easter Sunday.
Allow me to continue that same blessing.
God loves us. God loves you all. And evil will not prevail. We are all in the hands of God.
Therefore, without fear, united, hand
in hand with God and among ourselves,
let us go forward.
We are disciples of Christ.
Christ precedes us. The world needs his light.
Humanity needs him as the bridge
to be reached by God and his love.
Help us too, then, each other, to build
bridges—with dialogue, with encounter—
uniting all of us to be one people,
always in peace.
Thank you to Pope Francis.
I also want to thank all my brother cardinals who have chosen me to be the successor of Peter and to walk together with you as a
united Church, always seeking peace, justice,
always trying to work as men and women
faithful to Jesus Christ, without fear, to
proclaim the Gospel, to be missionaries.
I am a son of Saint Augustine, an Augustinian, who said: With you I am a Christian, and for you a bishop. In this sense, we can all walk
together toward that homeland which
God has prepared for us.
Our Mother Mary always wants to walk
with us, to be close, to help us with
her intercession and her love.
So I would like to pray together with you.
Let us pray together for this new mission,
for the whole Church, for peace in
the world, and let us ask for this
special grace from Mary, our Mother.
