Pope Leo XIV pastoral and diplomatic activities in Latin Am

Overview

Pope Leo XIV has engaged in several diplomatic and pastoral activities involving Latin American nations. In September, the Pope issued a letter to bishops in Latin America and the Caribbean to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the canonization of Saint Toribio de Mogrovejo. In the letter, he urged the episcopate to serve as shepherds close to their people, drawing on his own experience as a former bishop in Peru. This message preceded a scheduled apostolic journey to Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru.

Following this, in October, the Ombudsman of the Dominican Republic, Pablo Ulloa, formally invited the Pope to visit the Dominican Republic. During an audience in Rome, Ulloa suggested the Pontiff explore the ‘Ruta de las Américas’ to understand the nation’s history and requested prayers for Dominican families, youth, and those facing hardships.
