Pray with the Pope | Bid saam me die Pous | Sithandaza noPapa Leo

Pope Leo XIV asks us to pray that people use their wealth and resources wisely, sharing with those in need and working for the common good. He reminds us that true prosperity is found not in what we keep for ourselves, but in how we help others and build a more caring and just world. | Pous Leo XIV vra dat ons bid dat mense hulle rykdom en hulpbronne wys sal gebruik, dit met dié in nood sal deel en vir die gemeenskaplike belang sal werk. Hy herinner ons daaraan dat ware voorspoed nie lê in wat ons vir onsself hou nie, maar in hoe ons ander help en saam aan ’n meer sorgsame en regverdige wêreld bou.
