Pope at Mass in Castel Gandolfo: Let us imitate Christ, the Good Samaritan
By Deborah Castellano Lubov, Vatican News
"Do we look and walk by, or do we open our hearts to others, like the Samaritan? Are we content at times merely to do our duty, or to regard as our neighbor only those who are part of our group, who think like us, who share our same nationality or religion? . . . Jesus overturns this way of thinking by presenting us with a Samaritan, a foreigner or heretic, who acts as a neighbor to that wounded man, and He asks us to do the same."
Pope Leo XIV, July 13, 2025
