Milan, 12 July (LaPresse) – May there be "in all of us the awareness and joy of being Church, and in particular may we encourage you, in your discernment during the Chapter, to think big, as unique pieces of a plan that surpasses you and involves you beyond your own expectations: the plan of salvation with which God wants to lead all humanity to himself, as one big family. This is the spirit in which your Institutes were founded, and this is the horizon in which every effort must be placed, so that it may contribute, through small lights, to spreading throughout the earth the light of Christ, which never fails." Thus spoke Pope Leo XIV in his address to the general chapters of eight religious institutes who came in audience at Castel Gandolfo.
