More than 7,000 people have fled their homes in northern Mozambique in just five weeks as fresh violence forces families to seek safety. Nearly 80% of the arrivals are women and children, adding pressure on communities already hosting displaced families. (More in comments👇)

More than 110 people survived the dangerous Atlantic crossing from the Gambia, but two men died on route. A baby was airlifted to hospital in a critical condition. Survivors say at least two more bodies were thrown overboard during the eight-day crossing.

A 45-year-old Syrian-German man is on trial in Bad Kreuznach, Germany, over allegations that he took his two children to Syria in 2024 and used them to pressure his estranged wife. Both children returned safely to Germany later that year. infomigrants.net/en/post/745…

We wish to pray now for those who have recently lost a loved one, especially those whose loved ones have been torn from them by the senseless violence of war. May the tears of so many mothers, so many children, and so many elderly people touch the consciences of those who have the power to silence weapons!

En este momento, queremos rezar por cuantos han perdido recientemente a una persona querida; especialmente, por aquellos a quienes se la ha arrebatado la absurda violencia de la guerra. ¡Que las lágrimas de tantas madres, de tantos niños y de tantos ancianos conmuevan las conciencias de quienes tienen poder de hacer callar las armas!

La fe en Cristo nos dice que nuestro vínculo con los fieles difuntos no se interrumpe, sino que se transforma. Con la oración de sufragio acompañamos a nuestros seres queridos hacia la plena comunión con el Señor, esa comunión que ya pregustamos aquí, en el sacramento de la Eucaristía. Animados por esta fe llena de esperanza, proseguimos nuestro camino terrenal, a la espera del día en que Él enjugará todas las lágrimas.

Faith in Christ tells us that our bond with the faithful departed is not broken, but transformed. Through our prayers for the repose of their souls, we accompany our loved ones toward full communion with the Lord, of which we already have a true foretaste here, in the Sacrament of the Eucharist. Inspired by this faith filled with hope, let us continue our earthly journey, awaiting the day when the Lord will wipe away every tear.

How did disinformation fuel hostility towards migrants following mass crossings to Ceuta in late July? We spoke to disinformation experts to understand how claims about an “invasion" of Ceuta spread online and what effects this had.

As the #GospelOfTheDay reminds us (Mt 5:1-12), they are poor in spirit, yet rich in God’s love. Their faces are streaked with tears, yet they find consolation in prayer. They are meek in the face of violence and rewarded by the Father. They hunger for justice, yet are filled in the depths of their consciences. They are ready to forgive and embraced by mercy. They are disarmed in heart, yet protected by God. They are peacemakers, called by name by God. They are persecuted and insulted, yet strong in faith and charity.

The Solemnity of All Saints, which we celebrate today, invites us to share in the joy of that countless family of men and women who, following the Lord Jesus, have made their lives a gift to God and to their neighbors.

Holiness is not a privilege reserved for a few, but a universal vocation that speaks to each of us where we live. This is the hope-filled message of today’s feast: God sees the good that we do not see, knows stories that we do not know, and reaches hearts to which we have no access.

Como nos recuerda el #EvangeliodeHoy (Mt 5,1-12), se trata de pobres de espíritu, pero ricos en el amor de Dios. Tienen rostros surcados por las lágrimas, pero consolados en la oración. Son mansos frente a la violencia y recompensados por el Padre. Hambrientos de justicia y saciados en lo más profundo de su conciencia. Dispuestos al perdón y abrazados por la misericordia. Desarmados en el corazón, pero protegidos por Dios. Constructores de paz, a quienes Dios llama por su nombre. Perseguidos y ofendidos, pero fuertes en la fe y en la caridad.
