News Summary:

On March 6, 2026, Capuchin friar Father Roberto Pasolini, the preacher of the Papal Household, delivered the first of his Lenten Sermons with Pope Leo in attendance, addressing the theme of conversion and following Christ "on the path of humility." These sermons are scheduled to continue every Friday until March 27, focusing on the theme: “If anyone is in Christ they are a new creation (2 Cor 5:17).” Previously, Pope Leo XIV urged Catholic priests to resist the "temptation" to use artificial intelligence for writing sermons. During a closed-door meeting with the clergy of the Diocese of Rome on February 19, he advised them to "use your brains more," noting that like all muscles, if not used, they "die." Pope Leo XIV is the first head of the Catholic Church from the United States.
