The thoughts of Bishop Emeritus Tamás József

Monday, 20 December
Jesus said the most perfect "yes" to God, and the Virgin Mary’s is the second most perfect “yes”. Although she does not fully understand the content of God's message and asks questions, she is able to submit to God's plan and will with these words. And that is the basis of her sainthood and greatness. Our life also depends on how we respond day after day to God. For it is possible to say 'no', as the fallen angels did, who uttered: We do not serve! It is possible to refuse as the first couple did in the Garden of Eden when they ate of the fruit of the forbidden tree. We should always say “yes” to God, as Our Lady did.

Message of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV for the 112th World Day of Migrants and Refugees

Each year the World Day of Migrants and Refugees invites us to turn our attention to different aspects of the complex phenomenon of migration. For this 112th World Day, the theme, “Even just one of these children,” draws our attention to the minors directly involved in the experience of migration and flight, to the care owed to them, and to the Lord’s promise that “whoever receives one such child in my name receives me” (Mk 9:37).

Message of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV for the 11th World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation 2026

Dear brothers and sisters, the path before us is clear, though it is not easy. We are called to allow our hearts to be renewed, so that we might seek peace and care for creation. Scripture tells us to guard our hearts, for everything we do flows from them (cf. Prov 4:23).
