00:16For this reason, we receive the communion which makes her a sign and instrument of union with God
00:29and the unity of the human race is not uniformity, not into communion, values, the diversity of cultures, vocations, and
00:43ministries as a richness and promotes them.
00:48Along these lines, authority within the church must be exercised in the forms of service, discernment, and appreciation of charisms
00:58and initiatives.
01:00Since the participation of the laity is not a concession, but an expression of the baptismal dignity.
01:07A synodal church, moreover, shares the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of humanity,
01:14especially of the poor and those who suffer.
01:17However, the Second Vatican Council teaches us, listening to social and cultural realities,
01:27defending human dignity, accompanying families, young people, migrants, indigenous peoples, and those living in poverty,
01:39and working for justice, peace, and the common good are not optional tasks.
01:47They are requirements of our ecclesial mission.
01:57Synodality expresses the idea of walking together.
02:00It is a fundamental dimension of the church, which expresses the identity of the people of God as pilgrims
02:08and as an assembly called together by the Risen Lord.
02:13Brothers and sisters, I encourage you to discover ever more fully the beauty of being synodal communities.
02:21By seeking to ensure that everyone plays a part as living stones in a spiritual building,
02:29according to the different vocations and the many gifts and ministries inspired by the one Holy Spirit.
02:44This requires a spirituality founded on prayer, listening to the Word, participation in the Holy Mass,
02:53Eucharistic adoration, fraternal dialogue, and communal discernment.
02:58It is a communal and pastoral way of life that must be interiorized so that it can be coherently put
03:09into practice.
03:11Indeed, it is easy to speak about synodality, but putting it into practice is a challenge
03:18and requires everyone to examine their attitudes and conduct,
03:23beginning with the pastors, who are the primary servants of the community.
03:31For dioceses and parishes to be able to adopt this style,
03:37a synodal style of communion, participation in mission,
03:41it is worth revitalizing the role of pastoral councils in which some of you here are involved.
03:54Although their input is consultative, their ecclesial importance is considerable.
04:00They help the community to listen, understand reality, discern priorities,
04:06and formulate more appropriate responses.
04:10I therefore urge you to ensure that every community can have its own pastoral council,
04:17whose members should also commit themselves to receiving suitable formation.
04:25Dear friends, to close, I would like to thank each one of you for your generous dedication to the cause
04:31of the gospel.
04:33I encourage you to persevere in this task.
04:37May Our Lady of Peace bless your efforts to ensure that the kingdom of God takes root in this northern
04:45land
04:46and bears abundant fruit for the glory of God and the good of souls.
05:01These were the words of Pope Leo XIV in Cheers of Our Lady of Peace in Chitlayo.
05:09This visit of Pope Leo XIV to Peru is significantly special as he is returning to the country after the...
05:27We go back to the words of Pope Leo. Let's listen.
05:31Re-enter into the spirit of prayer that is so important for our lives.
05:36We are bishops, priests, consecrated men and women, lay people.
05:42We need to live this dimension of prayer so that we may always remain united with Christ.
05:48So let us pray together with the words that Jesus taught us.
05:54Our Father.
05:55Father Christ, who estás in the cielo,
05:58santo pecado sea tu nombre.
06:00Venga a nosotros tu reino.
06:03Hágase tu voluntad.
06:05En la tierra como en el cielo.
06:08Danos hoy nuestro pan de cada día.
06:11Perdona nuestras ofensas.
06:13Como también nosotros perdonamos a los que nos ofenden.
06:18No nos dejes caer en la tentación.
06:21Y líbranos del mal.
06:23El Señor esté con ustedes.
06:25And the Holy Father offers his blessing.
06:28El Señor está en el nombre del Señor ahora y por siempre.
06:31Nuestro auxilio es en el nombre del Señor que hizo el cielo y la tierra.
06:37Y la bendición de Dios Todopoderoso, Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo, descienda sobre ustedes.
06:54And the Holy Father has just offered the priests, religious, lay people, pastoral councils of the Diocese of Chiclayo and
07:04all of Peru his apostolic blessing.
07:14This was the address of the local clergy during the meeting at the sharing of the Lady of Peace in
07:23Chiclayo.
07:24Pope Leo returns to this place where he spends eight years of his life and then he went to Rome
07:38to lead the Catholic Church.
07:41This has been a really significant return to Pope Leo to the country.
07:49Here in this gathering in Chiclayo, then he will visit Cusco and Pucolpa in which he will held different meetings
08:00in force to save the Amazon.
08:04And we keep watching these images of Pope Leo and we will have much more news of these matters in
08:16Telstra English and in our news briefs from the South.
08:24Stay tuned because we will have more information coming up.
08:37We will have more information coming up.
