Pope at Consistory: It's not the Church that attracts but Christ
“I am here to listen,” Pope Leo XIV said in his opening address of the Extraordinary Consistory of Cardinals taking place in the Vatican, on 7-8 January.
The Pope began by expressing his joy at welcoming the Cardinals to Rome on the day after Epiphany, praying that the Holy Spirit may guide them during these two intense but important days of reflection and dialogue.
The Pope said their day-and-a-half together “will point the way for our path ahead."
“We must not arrive at a text," he said, "but continue a conversation that will help me in serving the mission of the entire Church.”

Rome — Pope Leo XIV has summoned Catholic cardinals from around the world to the Vatican for a meeting called an "extraordinary consistory," to seek their guidance on the Catholic Church's priorities for the years ahead.
"I am here to listen," Leo, a Chicago native and the first ever pope from the U.S., said Wednesday in his opening remarks. "This day-and-a-half together will point the way for our path ahead."
Of the 245 members of the College of Cardinals, 170 of the so-called "princes of the church" were in Vatican City to participate in the gathering.
As it got underway, Leo asked the cardinals to select two of four possible topics for detailed discussions: The missionary nature of the church, further reforms of the Vatican bureaucracy, synodality and liturgy.
