The Pope in Lourdes: the Church must have the courage of conversion

The need for "conversion" to which everyone is called "involves the Church itself". "It must have the courage to experience this conversion in the first place. To heal from the deep wounds, from the infidelities and from the painful confusions committed within it, we must place ourselves humbly under the purifying gaze of the Lord. Recognizing our mistakes is essential". The Pope said this in his homily at Mass in Lourdes. Today Leone will meet the victims of abuse. "It is today - not tomorrow - that we need to convert".
