Vatican Diplomacy & Dialogue: In the Angelus, the Pope framed peace as “mutual love,” calling for fraternal correction and honest conversation that turns conflict into growth. Canonization Watch: The Dicastery for the Causes of Saints is reviewing the cause of a Spanish married couple, Tomás and Paquita Alvira, as potential married saints. Oxford in Rome: An Oriel College delegation met the Pope, who urged them to “seek the truth courageously” and praised St. John Henry Newman’s unity of faith and reason. Environment as Sin: A Vatican theological commission backed new language calling ecological harm a “sin against creation and the Creator,” linking care for the planet to justice for the poor and future generations. Vatican Energy Plan: Reuters reports the Holy See is set to invest about €100m in an agrivoltaic solar project to power the microstate within two years. Rome Security: Italy declared a “red zone” around the Colosseum, adding extra 24-hour security amid rising crime concerns.
