Today, Pope Leo's doctors confirmed his cancer was localized and he requires no further treatment. Let me echo the words of Pope Leo as he began his Angelus prayer only nine days after surgery:

“The first thing I would like to say to you is: thank you! Thank you for the support of your prayers. Thanks be to God for His generosity. Let us all renew our trust in the goodness and mercy of God.”

Capital punishment is unacceptable in any case. The planned broadcast of the taking of a life by firing squad is nothing short of performative barbarism. Do we really want our children, who will inevitably view it, exposed to the pornography of a state-sponsored slaying?
A televised execution, particularly one by such violent means does nothing to prevent future crimes and may encourage them by conferring martyrdom on the Ft. Hood killer. Further, it contributes to the characterization of our nation as a violent, vengeful place.
Today we celebrate the feast of St. Carlo Acutis, a modern saint who showed that holiness is possible at any age. A special blessing to the community of St. Carlo Acutis Parish in Chicago. May the witness and example of St. Carlo Acutis continue to guide your mission.
To all the runners taking part in the Chicago Marathon tomorrow: May your long hours of preparation bear fruit in joy and perseverance. As you run through the streets of Chicago, may you encourage one another & discover the strength that comes from hope & community. God bless!
San Francisco de Borja, santo patrono de terremotos y de quienes enfrentan una muerte difícil, ruega por nosotros.
