Today, Pope Leo invites everyone around the world to commemorate the feast day of the Queenship of Mary by fasting and offering up prayers for peace in places ravaged by violence.

"I invite all the faithful to devote the day of 22 August to fasting and prayer, imploring the Lord to grant us peace and justice, and to dry the tears of those who suffer as a result of the ongoing armed conflicts. Mary, Queen of Peace, intercede so that peoples may find the path to peace."

(General Audience - 20 August, 2025)
