A New Pope to Bring Hope

  


Roman Catholics throughout the world have cause to rejoice with the announcement that there is a new Pope at the Vatican.

The man who will be called Pope Leo XIV is Robert Prevost, originally from Illinois.

He is the very first American to ever be appointed to the important and vital role of Pope, the head of the Roman Catholic Church.

 Because he spent so much of his life as a missionary in Peru, South America, many don't even mention his being primarily American.  

On a personal note, the Pope is so imperative because he gives hope to millions of his followers.

He is close to God and has great influence in a world that desperately needs compassion, hope, and joy right now.

A warm welcome to Pope Leo XIV!

All American Catholics should be very happy and proud that the new Pope is from the USA. God bless him and give him the grace to lead our faith to new heights.

I've been reading a lot about him. He has done so many good things in Peru. This is a lovely post to welcome our New Pope. He speaks of peace already, and I already feel connected with him in many ways. He also appears to be steady, which is important as a Spiritual Leader. Welcome, Pope Leo XIV.

He was the best choice for troubled times. By the looks of his past social media traffic, he is not shy in calling out these degenerate politicians when needed. I for one am looking forward to him shaming the Orange Menace and Israeli leadership for heinous war crimes and genocide in Gaza...Godspeed.
