Statement on the Election of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV
With a grateful heart, I thank God for the gift of our new Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, the Church has been blessed once again with a beloved shepherd to lead us in faith and unity. I offer my fervent prayers for our new Pope as he embraces this sacred ministry of service. May God endow him with wisdom, courage, and compassion, and may his leadership inspire the whole Church to walk ever more closely with Christ and to love one another more deeply.
