The first days can give the Guide Guide Tips

Shortly after a greeting crowd from the balcony, with the look of St. Peter’s square on Thursday night, Pope Leo XIV returned to the Palace of Santfysio, where he lived for the last two months.

He was met by a joyous group of employees and former colleagues, everyone sought to shake his hand and congratulate him.

The young girl handed him the Bible to bless and sign. “Of course, though I need to try my new signature,” Pope Leo said with a smile. “The old one is no longer useful.”

He stopped only Robert Francis Prevost a few hours before he was elected by the Pope. When he accepted the name Leo XIV, a new life began for a 69-year-old cardinal who was born in Chicago.

But the details of how Pope Lev will look for to manage the Catholic Church is still small, and therefore, in the next few days and weeks, every small hint – from his clothes to the choice of placement – will be studied.

It began carefully as soon as he went out to the balcony, giving the crowd to look at the clothes he chose for his first appearance.

The golden cross on the neck, which caught the evening light, was regarded as the first sign he retreated from the simplicity of the simple silver pendant of his predecessor; The embroidered stolen and red Motsetta fixed this impression.

Then the fact that the sermon he delivered to the Cardinals in the Sistine Chapel on Friday morning was a script – and not improvised – also sent a signal that “the lion would be more attentive to the tradition than Francis,” said Austin Jewish, a Catholic writer and commentator.

But several events over the next few days and weeks will give Pope Leo even more likely to send their pontificate.

On Monday, he must hold an audience in the media, and on May 18 he will celebrate a solemn inauguration Mass on St. Peter’s Square.

As part of this Mass, he will deliver a sermon in the presence of many heads of state and dignitaries.

In his introductory sermon in 2013, Pope Francis asked, “All who hold the position of responsibility in economic, political and social life” to be “defenders of creation, God’s plan … each other and the environment.”

Thus, this moment can also give prompts about expensive questions to Pope Leo.

The choice of the new Pope’s placement will also be significant.

Francis made a choice to live in the guest house of Casa Santa Marta Casa Santa, which was regarded as revolutionary, but the lion can decide in the footsteps of almost all its predecessors and reside in the Great Apostolic Palace.

“He was chosen less than a day ago; let’s decide him,” the Vatican sources said.

“These are all important options,” Joir added.

“Over the next few days, we will get more and more about it – the first week of the pontificate is a constant discovery.”

Meanwhile, in the absence of details about his future, like Leo XIV, fragments of the Old Pope, like Robert Prevost, come out of all over the world.

That’s the case Especially in the native Chicago And his foster home of Peru, in which he became a citizen in 2015.

In one of the photos, he is awarded a large handmade birth card, written in Spanish and surrounded by pies and balloons.

The video recorded when he left Peru to Rome, in which he says to miss the “joy” of Peru and the staples of local cuisine, like Ceviche, was met by triumphs by users of South American social media.

“The Pope Peruvian; God loves Peru,” said Peruan Dina Baluarte.

US tourists arising on St. Peter’s Square the day after the election were more restrained, and a little crazy news that the new Pope comes from the United States.

“I am still surprised that they chose an American, frankly,” said Chicagan Kerry, who is in Rome on the honeymoon.

She confessed that he did not know much about the new pope yet, but she was pleased that he was a supporter of the White Sox team on baseball.

Asked how she thought she was felt today, she laughed: “He must be really broken; referring to he didn’t sleep!”

Her husband Joseph agreed: “If you are chosen by the Pope, you came here as a cardinal for a conclave, but then everything never goes back to the way they were,” he said.

But he felt that the new pope seemed “a man of trust, prayer and humility.”

“I just pray that he shows the world what a man of God can do.”

Recently, the matches were posing in the picture with the newspapers of the day, and then they went to St. Peter’s Square, brilliant in the spring sunlight.
