Pope Leo XIV addressed over a million Catholic youths at the Jubilee of Youth's closing Mass in Rome. He declared them a sign that a 'different world is possible,' emphasizing dialogue over conflict. The Pope remembered young people suffering in war-torn regions like Gaza and Ukraine. The week-long event, part of a Holy Year pilgrimage, saw joyous gatherings and acts of faith, though sadly, two young pilgrims passed away. The Pope urged the attendees to spread their faith and aspire to holiness.
