Fr. Leo discusses the LGBTQIA+ pilgrimage to St. Peter’s Basilica during the Jubilee Year of Hope and how Catholics should interpret it. He highlights the tension between treating people with dignity and upholding Catholic teachings on sexuality. News outlets portrayed the event as a continuation of Pope Francis’s openness, but Fr. Leo notes Pope Leo did not make a direct statement on the matter. He emphasizes that pilgrimages should be about reconciliation and repentance, not pride or political optics. Drawing on Scripture, tradition, and examples like St. Helen, he encourages Catholics to dig deeper into conversion rather than surface-level gestures. Ultimately, he calls for dialogue that leads to authentic conversion while warning against misinterpretations that could distort the Church’s mission.
