Pope Leo XIV has been involved in several significant events, including meeting with King Charles III at the Vatican, where they prayed together in the Sistine Chapel, a historic first for a British monarch. The Pope has also spoken out against usury and expressed concern for the situation in Gaza, where Catholics have been affected by conflict. Meanwhile, Christians around the world are facing persecution, with reports of attacks on churches in France and Nigeria, and a significant number of Christians killed in Nigeria this year.
