    At the Heart of Christ’s Peace: Pope Leo Deepens Catechesis of Nonviolence In World Day of Peace Message

    At the Heart of Christ’s Peace: Pope Leo Deepens Catechesis of Nonviolence In World Day of Peace Message

    Vatican News, reporting on Pope Leo XIV’s 2026 World Day of Peace, emphasized how “The Pope reiterates that the Gospel links peace and nonviolence.” It is not surprising that Vatican News drew this conclusion. Officially released on January 1, the World Day of Peace message deepens and broadens a theme that has made this linkage throughout His Holiness’ young papacy, captured with precision in its title: “Peace be with you all: Towards an ‘unarmed and disarming’ peace.”
