On Remembrance Sunday, all who have died in war and conflict are especially in our thoughts. Let us all work for a better, more peaceful world.

The text says:

"Christ Jesus,
you understand the pain of loss,
the grief that seems to take the air from my lungs.
You are the Resurrection and the Life.
All our hope is in you."

Pope Leo XIV is travelling to Latin America for a visit that takes in Uruguay and Argentina before he returns to Peru.

It is set to be a major moment with particular significance for Indigidenous Peoples as our Head of Region for Latin America explains.

"This apostolic journey is momentous for the Catholic community in South America, especially for those in Peru where Pope Leo spent nearly two decades of his ministry.

The Holy Father’s visit also has special significance for Indigenous Peoples, who regularly face threats and intimidation when protecting their ancestral lands.

By hosting his first-ever papal Mass in the Amazon, Leo XIV will continue the work of Pope Francis, in championing vulnerable communities across the region whose lives have been marred by violence and environmental degradation.

To protect the Amazon is to protect the life of all."
