 Habemus Papam! We Have A Pope! Pope Leo XIV Excerpt from the official EWTN PRESS RELEASE Irondale, AL (EWTN) – “It is with great joy that I welcome the election of Chicago-born Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as Pope Leo XIV. The election of a new pope is always a historic moment in the life of the Church, but the election of the first American-born Pope is particularly momentous. The new Holy Father carries with him enormous experience as a missionary priest and bishop, which no doubt will help to shape his ministry as the 266th successor of Saint Peter. On behalf of the global EWTN Family, I want to assure Pope Leo of our prayers as he begins his service to the universal Church.” EWTN Chairman & CEO,Michael P. WarsawOn The Election of Pope Leo XIV.
