Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher prayed for peace in Ukraine at the Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Berdychiv, assuring the faithful of Pope Leo XIV’s spiritual closeness and urging them never to lose hope in God.
Today, July 19, marks the 35th anniversary of the restoration of the structures of the Latin Rite Catholic Church in Ukraine. Celebrations are being held at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Holy Scapular in Berdychiv, with Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher present as the Pope's special envoy.
At Castel Gandolfo, after the recitation of the Angelus, Pope Leo XIV said he continues to follow "with concern the events unfolding in various countries torn apart by war and violence." He urged everyone to unite "our constant prayers" with "generous efforts for peace." He also greeted the many pilgrims gathered in Piazza della Libertà.
During his Angelus address, Pope Leo says God's Kingdom grows quietly through humility, patience and love rather than power, urging Christians to trust in His hidden work and become "small seeds of the Gospel" in the world.
