It’s with great joy that we welcome our Holy Family, Pope Leo XIV <\/strong>, elected on May 8th, feast day of our blessed Marie-Catherine of Saint-Augustine!<\/p>\n ”Peace be with you all!<\/em><\/p>\n Dear brothers and sisters, these are the first words spoken by the risen Christ, the Good Shepherd who laid down his life for God’s flock. I would like this greeting of peace to resound in your hearts, in your families, among all people, wherever they may be, in every nation and throughout the world. Peace be with you! <\/em><\/p>\n It is the peace of the risen Christ. A peace that is unarmed and disarming, humble and persevering. A peace that comes from God, the God who loves us all, unconditionally.” (The Holy See) <\/em>.<\/p>\n We add to our joy that the Pope is a religious of the Order of Saint Augustine! He quoted this saint who said: “With you I am a Christian, and for you I am a bishop. <\/i>In this sense, all of us can journey together toward the homeland that God has prepared for us”<\/i>, continued the first Pope born in the United States. (The Holy See)<\/p>\n May Blessed Marie-Catherine of Saint-Augustine intercede for him throughout his pontificate, as a little sister through Saint Augustine, united in Christ. Long live the Pope! <\/em><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Habemus Papam!
