From that document, Leo highlighted multiple objectives, including \u201cgrowth in collegiality,\u201d \u201cpopular piety,\u201d a \u201cloving care for the least and the rejected,\u201d and \u201ccourageous and trusting dialogue with the contemporary world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cFrancis masterfully and concretely set it forth,\u201d Leo said, referring to the document, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vatican.va\/content\/francesco\/it\/apost_exhortations\/documents\/papa-francesco_esortazione-ap_20131124_evangelii-gaudium.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">called \u201cEvangelii Gaudium.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The new pope also explained <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/05\/08\/world\/europe\/name-leo-xiv-history.html\" title=\"\">the choice of his name<\/a>. The previous pope with his name, Leo XIII, issued a document called the \u201cRerum Novarum,\u201d known in English as \u201cRights and Duties of Capital and Labor,\u201d in the late 19th century in which he emphasized the church\u2019s right to make assertions about social issues as they related to moral questions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The document \u201caddressed the social question in the context of the first great industrial revolution,\u201d Leo explained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Now, the pope added, another industrial revolution was taking place in the field of artificial intelligence. That, he said, would \u201cpose new challenges for the defense of human dignity, justice and labor.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The church, he said, \u201coffers to everyone the treasury of her social teaching in response.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The reference to Francis\u2019 document was not the only endorsement that the new pope gave of his predecessor. Francis, Leo noted, was a \u201chumble servant of God and of his brothers and sisters\u201d who gave an \u201cexample of complete dedication to service and to sober simplicity of life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">After the pope\u2019s address, some of the cardinals also made speeches. Dominik Duka, a cardinal from Prague, said the subject of some of the speeches was <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/10\/02\/world\/europe\/what-is-a-synod-pope-church.html\" title=\"\">the theme of \u201csynodality\u201d<\/a> \u2014 referring to the process of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/05\/10\/world\/europe\/pope-leo-xiv-lay-catholics-synodal.html\" title=\"\">dialogue between church leaders and lay people<\/a> that was one of Pope Francis\u2019 signature legacies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Cardinal Duka said there had also been mention of the Vatican\u2019s relationship with China. During his papacy, Francis <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/10\/22\/world\/europe\/vatican-china-bishops.html\" title=\"\">made a deal with Beijing<\/a> in the hopes of bolstering the church\u2019s presence there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The cardinals appeared to have noted the message about maintaining the direction set by Francis\u2019 papacy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">As he exited the meeting, Cardinal Baltazar Enrique Porras Cardozo of Venezuela said the pope \u201cspoke about the continuity of the pontificate of Francis and then he asked some questions to us.\u201d Those questions were \u201cmostly about the formation of priests and bishops,\u201d the cardinal added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On his way out of the meeting, Cardinal Sean Brady of Ireland said Leo was in the process of \u201cgreeting everybody now, which is very nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On Saturday, after the meeting, Leo made an unannounced visit to Our Lady of Good Counsel in Genazzano, an Augustinian sanctuary outside Rome. A cheering crowd greeted him as he exited the passenger\u2019s seat of a black minivan. Residents of the town <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TV2000it\/status\/1921215503202234730\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">leaned out of windows<\/a> to take a picture of the pope as Leo shook hands and waved to those gathered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Later on, he paid a visit to St. Mary Major, where Pope Francis is buried. He stood in front of his predecessor\u2019s simple marble tomb. Before <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SalvoCernuzio\/status\/1921256419438821712\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">kneeling in front of it<\/a> in prayer, he
