Welcome Pope Leo XIV
With hearts full of joy and reverence, St. Josephine Bakhita Parish and St. Louis Catholic Academy celebrate a historic moment in our Church. We welcome the first-ever American pope, Pope Robert Prevost, who has taken the name Pope Leo XIV.
We lift him in prayer as he embarks on this sacred journey of shepherding the global Church. May the Holy Spirit guide him with wisdom, compassion, and strength. May his leadership reflect the love of Christ and inspire unity, justice, and holiness in every corner of the world.
This is a moment of deep significance for the faithful in the United States and a powerful reminder that God continues to do new and beautiful things in our time.
St. Josephine Bakhita, pray for Pope Leo XIV.
