A powerful resource for youth and adults as Pope Leo speaks about life in today's world

  

On October 21, 2025, thousands of young people gathered in a digital encounter with Pope Leo during the National Catholic Youth Conference. Their questions were honest and courageous—questions about mercy, sadness, feeling overwhelmed, friendship, technology, the Church’s future, and their place within it. The Holy Father listened with gentleness and responded as a pastor, a teacher, and a father who sees the beauty and challenges of youth with deep compassion. This booklet is designed to help young adults, parents, and parish groups reflect on those conversations.
