Palm Sunday weekend (March 28 - 29) -- new POPE Leo XIV condemns _idolatry of power & money_

 NCR ONLINE dot-org

Speaking from the balcony of 

the Prince of Monaco's palace

Pope Leo XIV (elected last May

following the death on Easter

2025 of then-Pope Francis) told

the Catholics in attendance

in the French language:

God disrupts those structures

of sin that create chasms between

the poor and the rich, between

friends and enemies!

Leo (an American - Peruvian citizen

before his election as the 2nd

W. Hemisphere pontiff) was

standing next to Catholic monarch

Prince Albert II of Monaco as he insisted:

every good placed in our hands

has a universal destination; it bears

an intrinsic need not to be held back,

but to be shared, so that everyone's

life may be better
