Photos: Mass for Pope Leo XIV at Chicago White Sox's Rate Field
The Archdiocese of Chicago celebrated the historic election of Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV on June 14 at Rate Field, home of the White Sox. The program included music, film, in-person testimonials and prayer. A Catholic Mass will be celebrated afterward.
On May 8, Prevost made history as the first American-born pope in the Catholic church's 2,000-year history. The 69-year-old Augustinian missionary was raised in south suburban Dolton and earned his master's in divinity from Chicago Theological Union.
