Pope Leo XIV celebrated a public Mass outside the center of the Italian capital today, attended by more than a million young Catholics from around the world. "Always aim for great things, aim for holiness, wherever you are," the Pope emphasized in his message to young people.
In today's meeting with the faithful, in addition to the Pope, 20 cardinals, 450 bishops and 7,000 Catholic priests participated.
"Our vulnerable sides are part of our existence and our magnificent entity," the Pope added, urging young people not to seek a non-existent, as well as false, perfection.
Today's service was the largest mass gathering of believers that the Italian capital has hosted in the last 25 years and was organized as part of the Catholic Holy Year.
Referring to a message from his predecessor, the late Pope Francis, the American Pope, addressing the young people gathered in Rome, emphasized that "all of us are called to face great questions, which do not offer any immediate and simple answers, but help us to begin to walk, to surpass ourselves, to overcome the limits we had known. With a lift, without which we would never be able to fly."
