On Sunday, May 11, Pope Leo XIV led the prayer of the Regina Coeli from the central balcony in St. Peter's Basilica, overlooking a crowd of 100,000 gathered to pray with him.
The Catholic community is alive, beautiful and strong, and it is up to its pastors to protect and nourish the faithful and to help bring God's hope to the whole world, Pope Leo XIV said.
The man once known as Robert Prevost — a quiet, thoughtful Augustinian with decades of missionary experience in Peru — is Pope Leo XIV.
