A year ago, we welcomed with joy the news of the \u2019white smoke\u201c announcing the election of Pope Leo XIV.
\nI saw the first images of the Holy Father while I was in Genoa and I commented with a free burst of euphoria on the choice of the Cardinals.
\nA year has passed and his second trip outside Italy is planned to the Principality of Monaco.
\nAn important choice, very.
\nFirst of all because this transfer takes place during a long pilgrimage between the parishes of the Holy City and the choice of Munich is like a continuum. .
\nRome is the city of the Pope, while in the Principality the Catholic Religion is the State Religion.
\nPope Leo XIV resumed the capillarity of St. John Paul II's pastoral visits, starting from the intimacy of the places of Catholic history, as well as those of spirituality.
\nIt seems to set up the Church's home for spiritual and intellectual exiles; a reassuring domesticity.
\nOf course every place is Church, but here, in these places, between Rome and Munich, there is a deep intimacy of life of the personality and personalities of Christianity.
\nIn the social vision of a Pope called Leo, there is an outpost of Rome.
\nA vanguard in work and social progress, technology and scientific research.
\nA Church that plays a leading role, but in a conflicting World acknowledges to Caesar what is Caesar's, testing itself precisely where temptations to overlap might be strong or easier.
\nInstead, we are in a historical phase where conflicts increase between states in which political personalisation seeks fetishistic idealisation and those where religion imposes the subjugation of civil authority.
\nIn this mounting conflict, there is a Pope who travels the pastoral boundaries with a reassuring respect.
\nLeo the Great stopped Attila in the confines of respect.
\nWas it the word respect that we are looking for in today's confusion?
\nNot a formal respect typical of southern social familism.
\nA respect in the ability to inhabit borders as load-bearing walls of a common building.
\nFor decades we have been calling for bridges, but I think today we should recognise the need for load-bearing walls.
\nBridges have turned into competition routes to serve individualism.
\nCould the load-bearing walls offer us a space for fraternal sharing?
\nMy ambition is not to give an interpretation of the Holy Father's journey, but to offer a contribution to our discussion.
\nI will bring these suggestions back to the Monegasque appointment that will see us gathered in reflection in the Principality under the leadership of Father Claudio Benvenuti on 1 April.<\/p>\n
