Abstract
The article states about influence and legacy of pontifices Leo XIII and Benedict XV through the prism of significant for Europe and the whole world events in the end of 19th — beginning of the 20th century (in particular, the First World War). A number of causations made the war inevitable. A scent of trouble had an impact on public sentiments and leaded to the origination of demand for a certain foothold — a strong figure capable of bringing together Europe divided at that point of time, a Pastor. After Leo XIII passing in 1903 authority of Catholicity faltered,
however chosen in 1914 Pope Benedict XV set a course for rehabilitation of the Church's lapsed positions. He proclaimed neutrality of the Church during the war urging monarchs and heads of states to stop hostilities, he actively supported charity projects giving an example for people and providing feasible assistance for war victims, Benedict XV became the one who can be called Apostle of Peace, that one Pastor, who people needed.
