Save the date to be part of a gathering at Rate Field on Saturday, June 14 to celebrate the election of Pope Leo XIV!

We have been touched by the outpouring of good wishes from all who, like Pope Leo XIV, call Chicago home and particularly from people beyond our faith community who heard his call for peace. We hope you will join us for this festive occasion. More details will be announced in the coming week.

May God bless Pope Leo XIV and may the Holy Spirit draw all of us together to pray for him now and throughout his papacy.

Rest in Peace Pope Francis, champion of the poor 🙏❤️
“When the votes reached two-thirds, there was the usual applause, because the pope had been elected. And he gave me a hug and a kiss and said: 'Don't forget the poor!' And those words came to me: the poor, the poor. Then, right away, thinking of the poor, I thought of Francis of Assisi. Then I thought of all the wars, as the votes were still being counted, till the end. Francis is also the man of peace. That is how the name came into my heart: Francis of Assisi. ... How I would like a Church which is poor and for the poor!" - Francis, speaking to journalists on March 16, 2013, recounting how Cardinal Claudio Hummes gave him the idea of choosing the name Francis.”
