Pope Leo XIV receives American Jewish Committee delegation

First source report

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV received a delegation from the American Jewish Committee at the Vatican Apostolic Palace on October 22, 2026. During the audience, the pope spoke about the friendship between Catholics and Jews and the need to defend human dignity, religious freedom, justice, and peace.

The pope noted that the meeting occurred on a day when the Church remembers Saint John Paul II, whom he credited with helping to foster relations between the two communities. He referenced the 1995 address by Saint John Paul II regarding the necessity of dialogue between Christians and Jews.

In observance of the 60th anniversary of the Second Vatican Council document Nostra Aetate, Pope Leo XIV stated that the Church does not tolerate anti-Semitism and fights against it based on the Gospel. He added that shared spiritual heritage calls both communities to reject religious and ethnic hatred and discrimination.
