Pope Leo XIV has officially taken possession of Rome’s cathedral, the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, in a profound liturgical ceremony marking a significant milestone in his pontificate. In the days surrounding this historic event, the Pope emphasized continuity and tradition, highlighting the Roman Curia’s critical role in safeguarding the Church’s pastoral heritage and historical memory.

In his first meeting with nearly 5,000 Vatican employees, Pope Leo reflected on his personal journey from the Diocese of Chiclayo in Peru, reaffirming his humble commitment with the words of St. Peter: “Lord, you know everything, you know that I love you.” During his first Regina Coeli prayer from the Apostolic Palace, he also expressed deep affection for Rome, underscoring his pastoral closeness as the city prepares for the Jubilee Year.

Join us as we cover these key moments, including Pope Leo XIV’s reflections and his heartfelt pledge of humble service to the Church and the faithful of Rome.
