May 18: Inaugural Mass as Pope Leo XIV

Picture
The inaugural Mass for Pope Leo XIV is scheduled for Sunday, May 18, 2025, at 10 AM Rome time. At the Mass's formal installation ceremony, Pope Leo XIV will receive the fisherman’s ring and the pallium as symbols of his papal office. 

The College of Cardinals chose the 69-year-old Chicago native, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, O.S.A., as the first American Pontiff elected. Since then, the Vatican Press Office released the official schedule of the first formal engagements for Pope Leo XIV. 
  • Friday, May 16: Reception of diplomatic corps (heads of mission)
  • Sunday, May 18: Inaugural Mass for the Beginning of Pontificate, 10 AM in St. Peter’s Square
  • Tuesday, May 20: Taking possession of the Papal Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls
  • Wednesday, May 21: First general audience of his pontificate
  • Saturday, May 24: Meeting with the Roman Curia and Vatican City State employees
  • Sunday, May 25: Regina Caeli prayer followed by taking possession of the two other papal basilicas:
    • Papal Basilica of St. John Lateran (the pope’s cathedral as bishop of Rome)
    • Papal Basilica of St. Mary Major
The “taking possession” ceremonies of the basilicas are traditional acts that underscore the pope’s role as bishop of Rome and head of the universal Church. 

The new Pope was the leader of the Augustinian order and in 2023 he was appointed by Francis to the Dicastery for Bishops, which oversees selection of new bishops from across the globe. He attended Villanova University, where he received a B.S. in mathematics and received a diploma in theology from the Catholic Theological Union of Chicago. He studied canon law at the Pontifical Saint Thomas Aquinas University, and he was ordained in 1982. After spending much of his career in Peru and serving as the bishop of the city of Chiclayo, Francis made Leo XIV a cardinal in 2023. 

May God and his Blessed Mother, guide and protect him as he begins his new ministry as 267th successor of Saint Peter.

We need adults to lead in crafts and games, and teens who are great with kids to help with VBS this summer.  (Must have finished 6th grade to help). Please use the link below or the button to register for volunteer opportunities!  https://forms.gle/v4vVh3gLiDEjZbgLA. 

The link to register your child for Vacation Bible School will soon be available. ​Please contact Janice Dagney at 610-857-0511 with any questions.

Praying the Rosary for Peace and Unity

Picture
Every Monday in May, beginning on May 5, 2025, at 7:00 PM, all adults and children are invited to join in praying the Rosary for Peace and Unity in our families, communities, country and in the world.
