Parolin and a pontificate that may change pace

Parolin is worried, and he doesn't hide it. Hours later, his words from today still stand out. First the visit to the Gemelli, with a reassuring "I found him well." Then, on the sidelines of an event at the Iraqi embassy, the line that carries weight: "No predictions can be made. If necessary, the Pope will reshape his pontificate." Coming from the Vatican's number two, that's no small thing. For the first time, a pontificate that may change pace is being discussed openly. #LeoXIV
