On the occasion of the first anniversary of the election of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV to the Papal Throne, H.R.H. Prince Charles of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, Duke of Castro, Head of the Royal House and Grand Master of the Dynastic Orders, wishes, in his own name and on behalf of his Family, to express to the Holy Father his deepest sentiments of filial devotion and his most heartfelt good wishes.
During this first year of his Pontificate, the voice of Leo XIV has consistently been raised in defence of peace, justice and the poorest among us.
The Royal House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, which has always placed the glorification of the Cross and the defence of the Roman Apostolic Church at the very heart of its mission, fully identifies with this Magisterium and renews its commitment to serving the Gospel and our most vulnerable brothers and sisters.
With the hope that this Pontificate may continue to be a beacon of peace for the Church and for the world.
Charles
Duke of Castro
