Rome, 13 Nov. (LaPresse) – “What a joy it is to return to Chiclayo! It is a blessing for me to be with you once again. Thank you for your affection, your support and your prayers, particularly those for my health during this time of trial which, with God’s help, I am overcoming.” So said Pope Leo XIV in his homily during the Mass he presided over at Pampas de Pimentel in Chiclayo, Peru. “Seeing your faces, I am moved to give thanks to the Lord, for you have been and continue to be a blessing in my life and in my episcopal ministry. I always remember you in my prayers; I also ask you to continue praying for me, so that our Lord Jesus Christ may grant me the grace to continue to strengthen my brothers and sisters in the faith,” the Pontiff added.
