Pope Leo XIV urges Rome diocese to prioritize quality over quantity in new pastoral evaluation
Pope Leo XIV launched the new pastoral year for the Diocese of Rome by calling for a comprehensive evaluation of existing activities rather than introducing new programs. He urged clergy and lay leaders to assess what is effective in leading people to Christ and serving the city, emphasizing that the goal is to 'do less and do it better' to avoid overburdening priests. The Pope also initiated the diocesan inquiry into the life of Don Luigi Di Liegro, founder of Rome’s Caritas, as a model for this discernment process.
