We pray that our new shepherd, Pope Leo XIV, be blessed with the wisdom and compassion needed to guide the Church. Joellyn Cicciarelli, President and Publisher of Loyola Press, released this statement:
Rejoice! We at Loyola Press join Catholics around the world in joyful celebration of our new pope, Pope Leo XIV. As a publisher rooted in Chicago, we are especially moved that the Holy Father hails from our city before he went on to serve so faithfully in Peru. We pray for and look to his guidance and strength as he leads the Church in these unprecedented times. May God bless our Holy Father!
