Pope Leo XIV has urged the people of Monaco to use their Catholic faith and wealth for good. In his homily at the end of a one-day visit, Leo urged them to reject the “idolatry of power and money” that is fueling wars around the world. Prince Albert and Princess Charlene met Leo at the Monaco heliport Saturday. It is just down the coast from Monaco’s marina, which is home to the megayachts of the rich and famous. It is the first papal visit in modern times to Monaco and the first since Pope Paul III came in 1538.
