"Dilexi Te": Pope Leo's First Apostolic Exhortation Explained | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The Vatican has published Dilexi Te (“I Have Loved You”), Pope Leo’s first apostolic exhortation. Signed on the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, the document focuses on the Church’s call to live the Gospel by prioritizing care for the poor — “the very flesh of Christ.” The Pope writes that faith cannot be separated from love for the poor. Frank Rocca — senior Vatican analyst for EWTN News — shares more about the content of Pope Leo’s first apostolic exhortation and discusses where the continuity of Pope Francis’s legacy can be seen, and where he believes Pope Leo is bringing his own emphasis or tone. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
