Today, a new Supreme Pontiff has been chosen to shepherd the church, in the person of His Eminence Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost of the U.S.A. He had taken the name Pope Leo XIV. Instead of speculating on how he would lead, conservative or liberal; whatever direction he may take on international geopolitics, or stand on various social and moral issues, it is important to pray for him.
Throughout the centuries, the Catholic Church survived bad Popes, as well as corrupt bishops, weak and lukewarm priest, just as Jesus promised, "the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." (Matthew 16:19)
But, what won't survive is your soul, if you let the failures of the clergy become your excuse to abandon the faith! We, the laity, were given the power of discernment by the Holy Spirit. Let not the wickedness of a few among us, lead us astray. While the church nourishes us in our faith, through teachings of the scriptures, doctrines and the liturgy, we will eventually be judged individually on how we responded and practiced our faith.
Let us then pray that he may uphold the apostolic mission of the Church, and to properly guide us in faith and morals.
