Today Pope Leo released the first major magisterial document of his papacy:Dilexi te (I have loved you).
It is a profound and deeply moving document addressed to all Christians, reminding us that at the heart of our faith is the call to love our neighbour. It reminds us of the preferential love that God has for those who are poor, the most vulnerable and marginalised.
We are called to learn from our brothers and sisters who live in poverty, recognising that their experiences bring a unique perspective to the increasingly unequal world that we live in today.
And we are encouraged to take concrete actions to build a better world, through almsgiving and raising our voices against the injustice that we see, because:
"Charity has the power to change reality; it is a genuine force for change in history."
You are invited to find out more about the Pope's message for us today and how you can respond to his call for concrete action.
