The missive, which Pope Francis drafted in a familiar style in the midst of the numerous appointments of the WYD, bears the date of 5 August 2023, the memorial of the Dedication of the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, and is about seven pages long.
“God asks us to go to the depths in the fight against spiritual worldliness”, he says, recalling Henri de Lubac, who warned of the dangers of this “way of life that reduces spirituality to appearance.” “As an old man and from the heart,” he continues, “I feel I can tell you that it worries me when we fall back into the forms of clericalism; when, perhaps without realising it, we let people see that we are superior, privileged, placed ‘above’ and therefore separated from the rest of God’s holy people.
“This is the priestly spirit,” the Pope says: “making us servants of the People of God and not masters, washing the feet of our brothers and sisters and not crushing them under our feet.”
