Habemus Papam: We have a new Pope: Leo XIV

Pope Leo XIV

Robert Prevost: Pope Leo XIV

Cardinal Robert Prevost is an Augustinian who was born in Chicago and has served in Peru as a missionary and as head of the church's Dicastery for Bishops, who oversees the selection of new bishops. 

In his opening address, before he gave the people in St Peter's Square and people throughout the world, he reminded us of the words of the risen Lord, 

Peace be with you

and spoke of peace throughout the whole earth and encouraged us all to build bridges and work together for peace. 

Please pray for Pope Leo XIV
