In just twelve months, we’ve watched him cross borders on his trips, bringing the closeness of a father to Catholics around the world. We’ve seen him bless babies, stop for the sick and the elderly, and offer those small, tender gestures that often say more than a thousand speeches.
His kindness, his smile, and his simple ways have won our hearts. Thank you, Lord, for Pope Leo XIV—one year with him, and we’re just getting started.
