NCBC Celebrates the Election of Pope Leo XIV
The National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC) celebrates the election of Pope Leo XIV with joy and gratitude!
“Peace be with you.” The first words of Pope Leo XIV on the loggia echoed in St. Peter’s Square and in the hearts of millions, quelling the restlessness of the brief interregnum.
We can imagine how deeply those same words must have resounded in the souls of His disciples when Jesus first appeared among them after the Resurrection (see John 20:19). With these divine words, our new Holy Father has opened his pontificate by calling us to focus on peace—the true peace that comes only from unity with Christ.
