"Peace be with you!"

Pope Leo XIV intentionally chose these four words to greet the world after his election: "Peace be with you". They are the same words Jesus used to bless His disciples after the resurrection.

Like the disciples who were hiding from the world in the upper room, many of us may feel like our world is far from peaceful. By embracing the invitation of Pope Leo XIV, we can bring the peace of Christ to others and "build bridges with dialogue and encounter so we can all be one people always in peace."

Carry this mission wherever you go with our Pope Leo XIV charm!

In the past several weeks, Pope Leo XIV has continued to call for an end to violence and to pray for those in war-torn areas. He asks us to join him in bringing peace to the world through our prayers and by sharing the Good News – inviting others to find faith in the God who loves them.

"A lack of faith is often tragically accompanied by the loss of meaning in life, the neglect of mercy, appalling violations of human dignity, the crisis of the family, and so many other wounds that afflict our society."

Like the saints who have gone before us, we can make a difference in the world by living our faith each day and giving our own unique witness to the love, goodness, and mercy of the Prince of Peace.

Join Pope Leo XIV in praying daily for peace and sharing your faith with those around you.
