Pope Leo XIV Urges French Bishops to Defend Church's Public Witness
Original: Pope Leo XIV Urges French Bishops to Defend Church’s Public Witness
Pope Leo XIV has called on French bishops to defend the Catholic Church's public witness, according to Radio Veritas Asia. The appeal underscores the Vatican's concern over the Church's role and visibility in French public life. Further details of the meeting and the Pope's remarks have not been widely reported yet.
Why now: The new pope's first notable message to the French hierarchy draws attention to the Church's standing in a strongly secular country.
