Following the news about World Youth Day in South Korea and the gathering in Assisi, Leo XIV once again turned his attention to young people during the Angelus, encouraging them to draw inspiration from saints such as St. Dominic, St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein), St. Lawrence, and St. Clare of Assisi. He also called for peace in Sudan, Ukraine, and Russia.
