Leon XIV

Leon XIV

religious leader Vatican City

Leon XIV, originally named León José de la Vega, is a prominent figure in the Catholic Church who recently made headlines for his first words as Pope, expressing gratitude towards his predecessor, Pope Francis. Ordained as a priest in 1982, he dedicated much of his early ministry to missionary work in Peru, where he played a significant role in nurturing vocations and serving various communities across the country. His extensive experience in Latin America paved the way for his elevation to the papacy, where he now continues to advocate for social justice and spiritual guidance within the Church.
