Pope Leo XIV sent a letter to the College of Cardinals thanking them for their participation in the January consistory and preparing the conversation for their next gathering June 26-27.

Pope Leo XIV honoured the memory of Algeria's Christian martyrs Monday evening, telling the country's tiny Catholic community that the blood of those who died for their faith remains "a living seed that never ceases to bear fruit."

Pope Leo XIV said April 13 he has "no fear" of President Donald Trump's administration and responded to Trump's criticism by telling journalists that his message to the U.S. president is "the message of the Gospel: Blessed are the peacemakers."

Pope Leo XIV arrived in Algeria on the morning of April 13, becoming the first pope to make an apostolic journey to the North Africa nation, the first stop of the pope’s 11-day, four-country tour of Africa.

April 11 marks 80 years since Pope Pius XII issued the apostolic constitution Quotidie Nos, which established the ordinary ecclesiastical hierarchy of the Catholic Church in China and raised it from centuries of missionary status.
