Arcbishop Franco Moscone delivers homily on San Michele

Archbishop Franco Moscone delivered a homily at Monte Sant’Angelo during the feast of St. Michael the Archangel on September 29, 2026.

During his address, Moscone noted that the biblical readings invite people to look toward the sky and find hope in God, whom he described as the true author and builder of history. He stated that the celebration of St. Michael reminds believers that the end of the world represents the defeat of evil and violence rather than the end of history.

Moscone encouraged people to maintain a positive outlook on the future instead of focusing on negativity, fear, or division. He argued that while evil may seem to multiply, it lacks roots and is destined to consume itself, whereas the path of good will always prevail.
