Tickets on sale for Pope Leo XIV mass celebration hosted by White Sox at Rate Field

You can now get your tickets for a Pope Leo XIV mass and celebration at Rate Field being put on by the Chicago Archdiocese and hosted by the White Sox. The pope, a lifelong White Sox fan and South Side native, will offer a special video message to the young people of the world at the event, with the Chicago faithful being the first to see it, the archdiocese said. There will also be celebration, prayer and music and Cardinal Blase Cupich will be in attendance. Gates open at 12:30 p.m., the program begins at 2:30 p.m. and the mass begins at 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 14. Tickets are $5 and on sale now through Ticketmaster. When Leo was first named pope, a brief debate broke out between the Cubs and the Sox over which team could claim the pontiff for their own, but his brother, John Prevost, was quick to set the record straight. "He's Sox, and then the radio announced Cubs, and that's not true," John Prevost told CBS News Chicago, adding that the new pope has been a White Sox fan "as long as I've known him." The White Sox also recently installed art to mark the seat where Pope Leo sat during Game 1 of the 2005 World Series.

Chris Bowen sparks outrage after he is caught eating pasta at Catholic mass: 'Rude'

Chris Bowen has been criticised by a Catholic priest for tucking into a bowl of pasta during mass. The Minister for Climate Change and Energy attended a morning mass at the Italian festival Festa Della Republica at Club Marconi in Bossley Park, south west Sydney, on Sunday. Witnesses told the Daily Telegraph Bowen arrived midway through the mass while people were taking communion, before sitting in the front row where he began to eat his pasta. Reverend Anthony Fregolent, who was leading the mass, told the paper Bown needed to show more 'respect' for the 'sacredness of the place'. 'When you arrive halfway through the service, you should go to your place and be quiet,' he said. 'The welcoming is very important in our faith and our religion, but also the respect for the sacredness of the place is important.' Rev Fregolent finished his mass, which was in Italian, with a request for people not to eat during the service. Several witnesses accused the Labor frontbencher of being 'rude' and showing disrespect.

'There is a mass which Mr Bowen did not attend followed by a public event which he did,' they told the paper. 'He did not realise the mass was in the final stages when he entered the marquee, as people were leaving. If he had realised, he would have waited a few minutes.' Bowen shared several pictures of himself at the festival on social media, including one of his bowl of pasta. 'Wonderful to join our local community to celebrate this important day at Club Marconi, in the heart of South-Western Sydney,' he captioned the post.
