Recalling the famous Christmas soccer match that occurred between opposing forces at the beginning of World War I, Pope Leo XIV said it is “always possible to meet, even in a time of division, bombs, and war,” and people must create opportunities to do so.
He was speaking on Tuesday evening to participants of a charity soccer match taking place in the Italian town of L’Aquila.
