Pope Leo XIV Urges Catholics in Uruguay to Live Faith Amid Small Numbers
Pope Leo XIV traveled to Uruguay during his November 6-17 apostolic journey, visiting the Cathedral Basilica of Florida and the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Thirty-Three. In the secular nation, the American pontiff encouraged Catholics to draw strength from their small numbers, live their faith, and serve as witnesses drawing others to Christ. He also offered advice to parents whose children have left the church. The stop is part of a broader South American apostolic tour that also includes Argentina and Peru.

In contrast to the European leg, which coincided with widespread urban disorder and nearly 1,000 police arrests, the Latin American journey focuses heavily on Catholic social teaching. The itinerary highlights vulnerable populations, including disabled individuals and parents concerned about secular family members.
