Habemus Papam!
In this episode of The Family Rosary Across America, Father Rocky, Drew Mariani, and Maggie come together to mark a truly historic moment in Church history: the election of Pope Leo XIV. He’s the first American pope, and (get this) from the South Side of Chicago! 🏙️
Father Rocky says he never thought he’d see this in “50 lifetimes.”
🎙️Drew Mariani Drops In
“The world is excited,” Drew shares. “Let’s cover our new Holy Father with prayers….”
No kidding. Being the Pope isn’t exactly an easy calling.
📞 Kathy from Minnesota calls in, full of thanksgiving for Pope Leo, and gratitude to Our Lady of Pompeii. Pope Leo even mentioned Our Lady of Pompeii in his address.
Kathy also shares about a couple, Catherine and Tom, who were told their baby had passed away at 20 weeks. But then… a heartbeat was found. ❤️ Miraculous.
📞 10-Year-Old Emilio
From Elk Grove, CA, little Emilio calls in with a sweet, solemn prayer for Pope Leo XIV and the soul of Pope Francis. 💔🙏
That kind of childlike sincerity is pure grace.

🌍 Lifting up the Church and Pope Leo XIV in prayer
Fr. Rocky summed it up perfectly: “Let’s support him with prayer. It’s a tough job.”
So, to Pope Leo XIV… we’re praying for you. And to everyone who tuned in: This is what being Catholic looks like in action. ❤️🔥
