Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV visited the Dicastery for Culture and Education at the Palazzo dei Propilei on the morning of September 21. During the hour-long visit, the pope met with employees and collaborators to thank them for their daily service to the Church and the world.

Cardinal José Tolentino de Mendonça, the prefect of the dicastery, welcomed the pope alongside secretaries Paul Tighe and Carlo Maria Polvani. After greeting staff at their workstations, the pope spent time in the chapel for prayer.

In a brief speech, the pope encouraged staff to continue spreading the values of humanism globally. He noted that culture, through art and sport, creates opportunities for encounter and fosters dialogue using a universal language.
