Gosbert Rwezahura opened Mass on Sunday morning by saying what everyone in the pews was thinking. \u201cHabemus papam!\u201d he exclaimed at Christ Our Savior Parish in South Holland, Ill. Beaming, he added, \u201cHe is one of our own!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was the first Sunday in American history with an American pope seated on the throne of St. Peter in Rome. At parishes across the country, Catholics filed into the pews with a sense of wonder, hope and pride over Pope Leo XIV.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At Christ Our Savior, the pride was personal: Today\u2019s parish was formed from others in the area around the South Side of Chicago that includes a now-closed church where the pope attended as a child.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Father Rwezahura put it simply: \u201cWe are the home parish of the pope!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cI\u2019m so full and so proud, I don\u2019t know what to do,\u201d said Janice I. Sims, 75. \u201cI\u2019m definitely blessed because I lived long enough to see it happen.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Others there traded anecdotes about brushes with the future pope, back when he was known as Robert Prevost: the music director who played at a wedding he officiated, the deacon who went to high school where his mother was the school librarian.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At the standing-room-only 10:30 a.m. Mass at Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago, the Rev. Ton Nguyen began his homily by exclaiming \u201cViva Papa Leo the 14th!\u201d The congregation applauded. Outside the church, yellow and white bunting hung in celebration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cMy heart is overwhelmed with joy that we have an American Pope, and he is from Chicago,\u201d Father Nguyen said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Catholics at other services around the country were no less ebullient and were starting to think ahead to their hopes for the new papacy. Perhaps Leo could attract more young people to church, inspire more men to become priests or help unify an often fractious Catholic population in his home country. At 69, he could lead the church for decades.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cHe already won over the hearts of the whole world,\u201d said Amelia Coto, 70, who was attending a Spanish-language Mass at Ges\u00f9 Catholic Church in downtown Miami. \u201cWe were without a father, but now God gave us this father we desired so much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Ms. Coto is from Honduras, and she teared up when talking about Leo. Like others at Spanish-language Masses in Miami on Sunday, she expressed optimism that a Spanish-speaking pope who lived for decades in South America might be able to sway American immigration policy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cI hope his arrival will help this new president change, stop all those deportations that Trump is doing to Latinos,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1g9ic6e ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Young parishioners during a service at Christ Our Savior.<\/span><span class=\"css-14fe1uy e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"css-1ly73wi e1tej78p0\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Jamie Kelter Davis for The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1g9ic6e ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago handed out cards with a photo of Pope Leo XIV to commemorate his election.<\/span><span class=\"css-14fe1uy e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"css-1ly73wi e1tej78p0\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Nam Y. Huh\/Associated Press<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">In New Orleans, the pope\u2019s mother\u2019s family had roots in the Black Creole community, where African, Caribbean and French influences blend. In the city this week, social media feeds were overloaded with images of the pope\u2019s face superimposed in everyday New Orleans scenes. Eating a bowl of gumbo. Showing off his footwork in a second-line parade. Popping his head out of a front door to ask, \u201cHow\u2019s your mama and dem?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Angela Rattler, 69, was attending Mass on Sunday at Corpus Christi-Epiphany Catholic Church in the Seventh Ward. When she first heard the pope speak, tears flowed down her face, she said. \u201cHe appears to be such a humble man.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">It was Mother\u2019s Day, which is not a Christian holiday but one where church attendance is usually high anyway. Still, the pews seemed especially full at some parishes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At St. Ann Parish in Coppell, Texas, all 1,300 seats inside were filled, along with a few hundred people seated in a courtyard at Sunday\u2019s 10 a.m. Mass. The Rev. Edwin Leonard planned a homily that emphasized the vocation of motherhood. But then \u201cthe Holy Spirit did a beautiful thing,\u201d he told his congregation, and another topic felt more fitting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cSo it is on Mother\u2019s Day that I\u2019m going to speak about the Holy Father,\u201d Father Leonard said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Among traditionalists, who had a rocky relationship with the open and informal Pope Francis, some wondered whether Pope Leo might reopen broader access to the traditional Latin Mass. Pope Francis cracked down on the traditional Mass, celebrated by Catholics around the world until the reforms of the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1g9ic6e ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Sunday Mass at Corpus Christi-Epiphany Catholic Church in New Orleans.

Joseph Portzer said in his homily. \u201cBut we do see that some of the first words that he said were to talk about unity in the church.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Father Portzer was among those who found the pope\u2019s American identity intriguing. \u201cWe will have an unusual experience being governed by someone who thinks like an American, a Midwestern American,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to mean a lot to us to have an American mind-set governing the church.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">For him, that meant a practicality in governing and the possibility that \u201cwe will be able, as well, to understand the way he thinks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">When Father Leonard in Texas heard the new pope\u2019s name on Thursday, the first thing he did was to look up whether he had political or ideological leanings, he told his congregation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cMea culpa,\u201d he said in the only Latin words heard during the Mass. \u201cWe should not try to fit our pope into our American liberal or conservative camps. If you did that, shame on us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Back at Christ Our Savior in the south suburbs of Chicago, a large population of immigrants from Nigeria worshiped along with white and Black families who have lived on the South Side for decades. The pope\u2019s home parish is now a place that in many ways reflects the global church that its favorite son is now charged with leading. Father Rwezahura is from Tanzania, and the deacon serving with him on the altar on Sunday, Mel Stasinski, has lived in Chicago his whole life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">United by a faith shared by 1.4 billion Catholics around the world, they were also connected by their sheer joy on Sunday. As Diane Sheeran, 70, described how she felt when she got the news about Leo: \u201cI had a grin for two days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-1smqmx3 etfikam0\">Reporting was contributed by <!-- -->Robert Chiarito<!-- --> in Chicago; <!-- -->Mary Beth Gahan<!-- --> in Coppell, Texas; <!-- -->Breena Kerr<!-- --> in Edmond, Okla.; <!-- -->Katy Reckdahl<!-- --> in New Orleans; and <!-- -->Ver\u00f3nica Zaragovia<!-- --> in Miami.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/live\/2025\/05\/12\/world\/pope-leo-news\/heres-the-latest\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rev.
