Show Notes
Pope Leo XIIIs first Holy Week, marked by Palm Sunday Mass in Saint Peters Square, echoes Pope Franciss final days, signaling a new era for the church under the first US-born pontiff. The procession, led by cardinals, bishops, and laypeople, culminates in Leos opening prayer at the central obelisk. Last year, Francis was recovering from pneumonia, leaving Leo to take the helm this year. Leo reinstates the Holy Thursday foot-washing, while Francis innovative approach of serving societys edges, including people of other faiths, continues to spark debate. This week concludes with Leo leading the Good Friday Colosseum procession, Easter Vigil baptisms, and Sundays Mass, preserving traditions as Holy Week reaches its climax.
