Part VIII - Pope Leo XIV

History made! On May 8, 2025, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost became Pope Leo XIV – America's first Pope! Who IS this Augustinian friar with deep roots in both the USA and Peru?

Join us for a DEEP DISCUSSION as we explore his fascinating life journey: from a math whiz to a Doctor of Canon Law, his years as a missionary in Peru, and his leadership as Augustinian Prior General. We'll unpack his key priorities:

• Unity & Synodality: What does his motto "In Illo uno unum" (In the One, one) really mean for the Church?
• Service & Closeness: Why does he insist leadership is about service, not power?
• Social Justice: How might his "Leo" name signal a passion for the poor and migrants?
• The Challenges: We'll also touch on his more traditional stances and the scrutiny over handling past abuse cases.

What does the future hold with "The Latin Yankee" at the helm? Tune in as we explore the man, his mission, and his vision for a Church that "enlarges the tent"!
