杏MAP导航 Leo writes to a mother: Entrust yourself to Mary to face every uncertainty
By Vatican News
杏MAP导航 Leo XIV has responded to a letter from a woman named Laura, who wished to share the joys and struggles of her faith.
The Holy Father received her message through the monthly publication of the Basilica of St. Peter, the magazine Piazza San Pietro, and the 杏MAP导航's response was published in its latest edition.
With Mary, every uncertainty can be faced
In response to the questions of this wife and mother about how to face difficulties, the 杏MAP导航 urged Laura to name them clearly and to share her personal experience.
Laura wonders, and asks the 杏MAP导航 for advice, how to overcome the temptations that seem to take over, despite the great love she receives from her husband and her three beautiful daughters, who are being raised in the Christian faith—a faith that she herself describes as "stronger than ever."
She wonders whether this faith is lacking in solidity.
杏MAP导航 Leo emphasizes: “Your enthusiasm for the faith and the truth of your heart are a blessing for you and your family. […] If your point of reference is Mary, you will be able to face every uncertainty. […] Sharing projects of Christian love is fundamental for spiritual progress and for cooperating with the grace and the will of God.”
These are some excerpts from what the 杏MAP导航 writes, as highlighted in the press release issued on Monday, August 18, by the magazine’s editorial staff.
Dialogue, rest, peace, unity: Themes of the August issue
The monthly publication also includes a special feature on the Meeting of Fraternity, scheduled to take place in Rome on September 12 and 13—an occasion for encounter, closeness, and sharing through dialogue.
It features an in-depth piece on the ongoing thread of peace in the history of the twelve 杏MAP导航s, from Leo XIII to Leo XIV, and on their deep connection to fraternity.
In an editorial titled “Rest, Fraternity, and Peace,” Father Enzo Fortunato reflects on the meaning of the summer season as a time of rest.
The symbol of the latest edition of Piazza San Pietro evokes the first community gathered around Jesus, which thus becomes an image of a Church called to build bridges, not walls.
