  • On a Thursday in 2025 at Vatican City, the papal conclave chose Robert Francis Prevost as the new pope, who took the name Leo XIV and was introduced to the enthusiastic crowd from the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica.
  • Prevost's election followed his roles as Bishop of Chiclayo, Peru, Prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, and close collaboration with the late Pope Francis.
  • Pope Leo XIV, born in Chicago in 1955, wore traditional vestments including a white cassock, red mozetta, and a burgundy stole symbolizing Church leadership.
  • In his first address, he called for mutual support in fostering connections through conversation and meaningful interactions, aiming to bring everyone together as a unified people committed to lasting peace, and expressed his gratitude to Pope Francis.
  • As the first American and first Augustinian pope, Leo XIV’s papacy may emphasize unity and St. Augustine’s teachings while the Church’s future direction remains to be seen.
