Pope Leo visits South America – level 1

13-11-2026 07:00

One million people come to see Pope Leo at night in Argentina. The Pope talks to many young people. He asks them to be kind. He tells them not to worry only about money, online popularity, or good looks.

Many happy people wave their phones and bring their babies for a blessing. The pope is visiting three countries in South America to talk about God and help poor people. He also asks the country’s leader to help people who do not have much money.

Many young people are very happy to see the pope and listen to his words.

Difficult words: popularity (when many people like someone), wave (to move your hand when you are saying hello to someone), blessing (a time when people ask for God’s help).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What does Pope Leo ask young people to do, and what does he tell them not to worry only about?
