The new Pope chosen, Leon XIV, officiates on Friday with the cardinals in the Sistine Chapel his first liturgy as a leader of the Catholic Church, which has around 1.4 billion believers around the world, reports Reuters.
The choice of cardinal Robert Prevost, originally from Chicago, but who worked for many years as a missionary in Latin America, followed a two -day fast conclave, ended on Thursday evening, when the white smoke went on the Vatican chapel.
After the job, Leon will have lunch with the cardinals who chose him, after which they will be free to leave the Vatican and return to their origin countries.
