In an address to members of the Centesimus Annus Pro Pontifice Foundation, Pope Leo XIV addressed the question of the development of social doctrine and stressed the responsibility of all the faithful to contribute to this process. In this way, he said, we would make a contribution to better understanding, hope and peace.

“I invite you, then, to participate actively and creatively in this discernment process, and thus contribute, with all of God’s people, to the development of the Church’s social doctrine in this age of significant social changes, listening to everyone and engaging in dialogue with all.”
