AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Venezuela Earthquake Prayers: Pope Leo XIV asked that prayers be offered for victims of the June 24 earthquakes in Venezuela, telling the faithful that the Lord will “sustain you in this difficult time.” Summer Break at Castel Gandolfo: The Pope began his July rest period at Castel Gandolfo, with audiences suspended until July 27, while continuing the Angelus from the lakeside town. US 250th Anniversary Message: On Independence Day, Leo marked America’s 250 years with a letter and remarks praising the nation’s immigrant story and urging “welcoming, protecting, and assisting” migrants—an implicit rebuke to current US immigration policies. Lampedusa Migrant Focus: He also visited Lampedusa, laying flowers for migrants who died at sea and calling people to become neighbors through action. Nigeria Outreach Signals: Vatican foreign minister Cardinal Paul Gallagher hinted a future Pope Leo visit to Nigeria after talks with President Tinubu. AI Clash in the US: Billionaire Peter Thiel renewed attacks on Leo’s AI stance, claiming the Vatican’s push for international rules would favor China. SSPX Schism Fallout: A priest tied to the Society of St. Pius X told followers a future pope will “open the door” back to Rome after the group’s excommunication.
