Dilexi Te: Apostolic Exhortation of Pope Leo XIV

This Study Plan is designed to help readers engage Dilexi Te prayerfully and practically, whether individually or in small groups. Each day provides a section of the exhortation and reflection questions. Use these questions to invite honest dialogue, personal examination, and renewed commitment to seeing Christ in those most in need. In his first apostolic exhortation, Pope Leo XIV invites the Church to rediscover the beating heart of its mission: love for Christ revealed in the poor and suffering. Flowing naturally from Pope Francis’s earlier reflection on the Sacred Heart, Dilexit Nos, this document calls every Christian to a deeper conversion of heart— away from self-centeredness and toward compassionate service that reflects the mercy of Jesus.
