@PontifexOct 18
I would like to thank all those who have prayed for me in recent days. I wish to express my particular gratitude to the doctors, nurses and all the staff of the Gemelli Hospital. This experience has made me feel particularly close to all those who are living with illness or infirmity. Now that I have overcome this delicate phase I will gradually resume my activities, always with God’s help and your prayers.

I was talking about JP2 with Hubs last night. Survived fascism, fought communism & won, first Pope to visit Israel, wrote at length about human relationships. I can remember watching his funeral with Mom who spared no love for the Church, but had a great deal of respect for him.

EL NIÑO JUDÍO QUE JUAN PABLO II SE NEGÓ A BAUTIZAR. Cracovia, Polonia, 1942. Helen y Moses Hiller, encerrados en el gueto judío, comprendieron que probablemente serían asesinados por los nazis. Antes de morir en Auschwitz, consiguieron salvar a su hijo Shachne, de apenas dos años, entregándolo a un matrimonio católico. Les dejaron una petición: si no regresaban, querían que su hijo creciera como judío. Terminada la guerra, los padres no volvieron. La familia que había salvado al pequeño quiso adoptarlo y bautizarlo. En 1946 acudieron a un joven sacerdote polaco. El sacerdote preguntó cuál había sido la voluntad de sus padres. Cuando se enteró, se negó a bautizarlo y recomendó entregarlo a sus familiares judíos. Aquel sacerdote se llamaba Karol Wojtyła. 32 años después se convertiría en el papa Juan Pablo II. Shachne sobrevivió, creció como judío y formó su propia familia. En 1978 descubrió que el sacerdote que había protegido su identidad era el nuevo papa. En una Europa que había intentado borrar al pueblo judío, un sacerdote católico decidió respetar la última voluntad de dos padres asesinados en Auschwitz. En una Europa que hoy persigue a los judíos, esta es una historia que merece ser recordada y emulada y nos muestra la existencia de un Papa que honró la designación al que se lo extraña y mucho

Catholics are united in prayer for Pope Leo XIV as the Vatican confirms the Holy Father has been diagnosed with cancer and had the lower lobe of his right lung removed during surgery. Tests confirmed a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma, a common form of lung cancer. The diagnosis had been suspected due to preoperative tests and was confirmed during the surgery.

A Hebrew version of the legend of King Arthur?? Yes! Check out @ProvidenceCol Prof. @Arthurianism's latest article in Arthuriana: "A Charitable Reading:The Grail as Tamḥui in the Hebrew King Arthur Romance of 1279" muse.jhu.edu/pub/91/article/… #Medieval #interfaith
A Charitable Reading:The Grail as Tamḥui in the Hebrew King Arthur Romance of 1279 Christopher Michael Berard (bio) and Leon Jacobowitz-Efron (bio) The Hebrew Arthurian romance Sefer ha-Heshmed (1279), or Melekh Artus, translates 'Grail' as 'tamḥui,' the communal charity platter used by Jewish communities to feed the poor. This article argues that this choice is learned and empathetic, capturing the form, function, and much of the symbolic meaning of the Christian Grail. (CMB and LJE)

Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, is sounding the alarm over the rapidly deteriorating situation in the West Bank, where escalating Israeli settler violence against Palestinians is taking place amid little effective security or legal accountability. He described the West Bank as a “lawless land,” warning that settler aggression against Palestinians continues without effective security or legal restraints. His message is clear: what is happening is not a series of isolated incidents. Israeli settler terrorism has become an ongoing reality in the West Bank, tensions continue to rise, and the lack of meaningful restraint or accountability is making the situation increasingly dangerous. He also called for greater international diplomatic engagement, rejected the dehumanization of either people, and reaffirmed the two-state solution as the path forward for Israelis and Palestinians.
