I was blessed to celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela after completing the Camino. Though challenging at times, I felt your prayers along the way. I return home grateful for this journey.

Durante todo El Camino yo sabía que Dios estuvo, Jesús estuvo caminando conmigo. ¡Todo el tiempo buen camino a todos y que Dios los bendiga!

I am taking the last 100 steps before entering the city of Santiago de Compostela. I have felt Jesus walking with me every step of the way. Buen Camino and God bless you!

Papa Leone XIV ha annunciato l'operazione a cui si sottoporrà per rimuovere un nodulo circoscritto al polmone. Il Pontefice ha ringraziato per la vicinanza spirituale e si è affidato alle preghiere dei fedeli

Queridos amigos: recientemente, durante una revisión, los médicos me han detectado un nódulo localizado en el pulmón. Se ha detectado todavía en una fase muy temprana y está bien localizado. Los médicos consideran oportuno intervenir. Por eso, siguiendo sus consejos, he decidido operarme para removerlo. La operación ya está programada para los próximos días. Les agradezco su cercanía espiritual y me encomiendo a sus oraciones.
