Dilexi te,” Leo XIV: faith cannot be separated from love for the poor
The first apostolic exhortation by Robert Francis Prevost has been published, a work initiated by Francis on the theme of service to the poor, in whose face we encounter “the suffering of the innocent.” The Pope denounces the economy that kills, the lack of equity, violence against women, malnutrition, and the educational emergency.
Following in the footsteps of his predecessors

With this document signed on October 4, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, the Augustinian Pontiff follows in the footsteps of his predecessors: John XXIII, with his appeal to rich countries in Mater et Magistra not to remain indifferent to countries oppressed by hunger and misery (83); Paul VI, with Populorum Progressio and his intervention at the UN “as advocate of the poor.”
