Basilians Rejoice: Viva Papa Leo XIV!
May 8, 2025
Today, we join in the joyous celebration of the election of Pope Leo XIV. As members of the Basilian community, we stand united in prayer, asking God to guide and bless His Holiness in his new role as the leader of the Church. We pray for unity, peace, and joy to flourish throughout the world as Pope Leo XIV leads us in faith. May God’s blessings be with the Church and all who walk in His path under the guidance of our Holy Father.
Fr. William May CSB and St. Michael’s College School Students gather in the cafeteria in the anticipation brought by the white smoke.
