About this listen

 Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, now Pope Leo the 14th, has made history as the first American to lead the Catholic Church in its 2,000-year existence. Born in Chicago, Illinois on September 14, 1955, the 69-year-old pontiff brings a unique background as both an American and Peruvian citizen, creating a bridge between North and South American Catholic traditions at a crucial time for the global church.

Growing up in Chicago, young Robert experienced a vibrant Catholic upbringing. His family home frequently welcomed priests, and he developed a positive connection to parish life from an early age, serving as an altar boy and attending the parish school. These formative experiences would later blossom into a lifelong commitment to the Church.
