"Peace be with you"
POPE LEO XIV
Cardinal Robert F. Prevost, the Chicago-born prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops under Pope Francis, was elected the 267th pope May 8, 2025, and took the name Pope Leo XIV.
He is the first North American to be elected pope and, before the conclave, was the U.S. cardinal most mentioned as a potential successor of St. Peter. He was raised in a suburb of Chicago. Pope Leo's first words were "Peace be with you."
