Well staged: Macron attends Papal Eucharist. Having alledgely planned to attend none of Pope Leo XIV's liturgies, President Macron has suddenly “rearranged his diary” to attend the Papal Eucharist in Metz. The cathedral is located in the department of Moselle, which is not governed by France’s 1905 laicist law. It was part of Germany when the law was adopted, and it still operates under the Alsace-Moselle concordat system. Macron is now contributing to the wave of enthusiasm generated for Leo XIV. Some journalists framed Macron’s initially announced absence from Leo XIV’s papal liturgies as a deliberate snub. They linked it to reports that the Vatican had declined opportunities for additional private time between Macron and the Pope.
Élysée says Macron has “rearranged his diary” to attend papal Mass at Cathedral in Metz, which is in Moselle, which, being German at the time, is not covered by the 1905 laïcité law, allowing Macron to cash in on ‘le feeling’ generated by Leo visit.

Truth is a sword that the synodal Church “wraps in cotton wool,” Swiss Bishop emeritus Marian Eleganti writes on his blog on September 27. He comments on a thematic guide prepared for Leo XIV’s October 7–14 meeting with the presidents of bishops’ conferences. Monsignor Eleganti argues that the synodal Church uses a predominantly “sentimental vocabulary,” moving away from clear sacramental and canonical criteria toward a language of accompaniment and appreciation. He contrasts Familiaris Consortio with Amoris Laetitia: the former is now treated, he argues, as “yesterday” and “too hard,” the latter as “today” and “merciful.”
Bischof Marian Eleganti kritisiert kurz vor dem Vatikan-Treffen von Papst Leo XIV. zu Amoris Laetitia die Synodalität. Die synodale Kirche urteile mit „sentimentalem Vokabular“ statt nach sakramentalen und kirchenrechtlichen Kriterien: Familiaris Consortio sei „gestern – zu hart“, Amoris Laetitia „heute – barmherzig“. Die Wahrheit, so Eleganti, werde dabei „in Watte gepackt“.
Pope Leo XIV made a strong public intervention on assisted dying and end-of-life care in Lourdes. He said that human dignity does not depend on a person’s condition, argued that healthcare workers are called to care for suffering people rather than “eliminate” them, and called for continued development of palliative-care facilities and research.
Leo XIV embraced and blessed 11-year-old Marie-Garance during his visit to Lourdes. Marie-Garance, who lives with profound multiple disabilities, was adopted at 16 months by Clotilde and Nicolas Noël, a Catholic couple who already had six biological children. The Noëls have adopted four children with disabilities. Clotilde describes her bond with Marie-Garance as extraordinarily close, calling her the “cornerstone of our family” and saying: “I had been searching for her for all eternity.”
Marie-Garance, la fillette que le pape Léon XIV avait bénie lors de sa visite en France, avait été placée en famille d’accueil avant d’être adoptée par une famille catholique. Ses parents avaient déjà six enfants biologiques lorsqu’ils ont accueilli chez eux trois autres enfants en situation de handicap, dont Marie-Garance, qui souffre de handicaps multiples et profonds.

Leo XIV accused the Church of systemic abuse. Pope Leo XIV met seven victims of sexual abuse committed within the French Church — four men and three women — during his visit to Lourdes. The meeting was scheduled to last one hour but continued for nearly two. The Pope first spoke with each person individually, before meeting them together as a group. Five of the seven later said that Leo XIV acknowledged the alleged systemic nature of abuse in the Church.
In Paris, Pope Leo XIV briefly stepped out of his car to speak with Marie-Caroline Schürr. Suffering from a rare genetic disease, she had shared with Boulevard Voltaire (!) her concerns about the euthanasia law
Leo XIV rejected assisted dying at Lourdes, warning against “false compassion” and declaring that “what is legal is not necessarily moral.” Pope Leo XIV on Sunday strongly rejected euthanasia while addressing sick and disabled people and healthcare workers at the Sanctuary of Lourdes, France. Speaking at the Accueil Notre-Dame, Leo XIV said the human person is “worthy” simply by virtue of existing and that human dignity “cannot be measured or debated.” “No human law should ever make you lose the certainty of your dignity,” he said. He continued: “We must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion.” Leo XIV added: “It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal. What is legal is not necessarily moral.” Turning directly to healthcare workers, he said their vocation is “to care for a suffering person, not to eliminate that person.” The Pope also repeated a warning he made in June that medicine must never become “the servant of programmed death,”…Doliwat

The Mean Girls Presidency nytimes.com/…pinion/donald-trump-administration-m… Sept. 27, 2026 By Molly Jong-Fast Ms. Jong-Fast is a contributing Opinion writer. I was once a teenage girl, but not a very cool one. I never had the right vintage jeans. I never wore the right high-heeled Free Lance boots, the ones that all the cool girls had. I think about this a lot while watching how Donald Trump runs the White House and the world alongside a high school clique of dumb jocks (Pete Hegseth!) and hot cheerleaders (Natalie Harp!) and nerdy suck-ups (Mike Johnson!). My Queen Bee — my Regina George from “Mean Girls,” my Cher Horowitz from “Clueless” — wasn’t the president of the United States, but at the time she felt arbitrarily powerful, profoundly charismatic and definitely wealthier than I was. She bullied me about my weight and lack of style. She had her friends shun me, too. My peers were rewarded with the social relevance that comes from pleasing the top of the food chain.

In Paris, Pope Leo XIV received Sister Marie-Reine, a French nun and researcher at the French Biblical and Archaeological School of Jerusalem. On April 28, she was violently attacked in Jerusalem by Yona Schreiber, 36, a resident of an Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Prosecutors said she was targeted out of religious hostility. In August, a court found Schreiber was psychotic at the time and ordered his psychiatric hospitalization for up to six years.
À Paris, le pape Léon XIV a reçu sœur Marie-Reine, la religieuse française travaillant à l'École biblique et archéologique française de Jérusalem, qui a été poussée, frappée dans la Ville sainte le 28 avril 2026, par un Israélien qui lui a aussi craché dessus. L'homme de 36 ans (Yona Schreiber), habitant d'une colonie israélienne de Cisjordanie, a été jugé le 26 août. Le parquet demandait sa condamnation pour une agression motivée par l'hostilité religieuse.

“Encounter” (Encontro) is a white-marble sculpture by Portuguese architect and artist Álvaro Siza Vieira, unveiled in the Vatican Gardens on September 24. The anthropomorphic work depicts a slender, stylized figure positioned near an olive tree and facing the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica. It was previously displayed as part of the Holy See Pavilion at the 2023 Venice Biennale. At the unveiling, Vatican Governor Sister Raffaella Petrini described it as an encounter between art, the Pope’s gardens, and the community. Open to individual interpretation, the sculpture is intended to evoke care for our “Common Home,” fraternity, peace, and a “culture of encounter.”
New sculpture installed in Vatican gardens: My first associations are a giant outdoor Wi-Fi router, a solar-powered parking meter, a minimalist surveillance camera, a patio table growing out of a bollard, or an unfinished Starlink terminal for the Vatican.
