Chicago’s Robert Prevost Becomes Pope Leo XIV
Pope Leo XIV, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost of Chicago, has become the first American-born pontiff, sparking celebrations and special prayer services across the U.S., especially in Chicago. In his first formal address, he highlighted artificial intelligence as a transformative force akin to the Industrial Revolution and reinforced the Church's commitment to human dignity and justice. During his first Sunday blessing, Pope Leo XIV called for a just and lasting peace in Ukraine and an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, signaling his focus on global humanitarian concerns. His election has generated excitement and optimism among Catholics worldwide, with large gatherings in cities such as Brooklyn, Chicago, Orlando, and Tampa. Faith leaders and parishioners hope his American perspective and multicultural background will help bridge divides and unite the Church. The cardinals' decision reflected a desire for continuity with Pope Francis's service-oriented and inclusive legacy.
