First U.S.-born pope, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost has been named the 267th pontiff of Rome and he has taken the name Pope Leo XIV. After the “Mass for the Election of the Roman Pontiff” in St. Peter’s Basilica Wednesday morning, the 133 cardinals eligible to elect the next pope processed into the Sistine Chapel that evening to begin the process. To elect a new pope, a two-thirds majority was required, meaning at least 89 votes were needed out of 133 electors. Voting occurred twice in the morning and twice in the afternoon. Before the electors left the Sistine Chapel after each vote, all the ballots were burned in a cast-iron stove first used in the 1939 conclave. This is where the chemicals are added to color the smoke: black if no pope has been elected, white if one has. Born on September 14, 1955, in Chicago, Illinois, Cardinal Robert Prevost entered the Order of Saint Augustine (OSA) in 1977. After his ordination as a priest in 1982, Prevost joined the Augustinian mission in Peru. He returned to the United States and served in the roles of pastor for vocations and director of missions before returning to Peru, where he spent the next 10 years teaching canon law. He has served in many additional capacities, including former prefect of the influential Dicastery for Bishops. Pope Francis appointed him apostolic administrator of the Diocese of Chiclayo in 2014, and he was elevated to Bishop of Chiclayo in 2015. On September 30, 2023, Pope Franics elevated Prevost to the rank of Cardinal. Prevost shares views close to those of Pope Francis and is noted for playing an important role in ensuring institutional stability in Peru during successive political crises. His education background includes a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Villanova University, a Master of Divinity from Catholic Theological Union in Chicago and both a licentiate and doctorate in canon law from the Pontifical College of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome.

Welcome to the Mental Health Minute, a space where we explore the vital topic of mental and emotional well-being. Let's open the conversation and journey together towards a healthier, happier you. The Office of Mental Health Ministry is not a clinical resource and is not intended to serve as a substitute for treatment or counseling with a qualified professional. We do not diagnose or treat mental illness, but rather serve as an avenue to provide literacy in mental health to promote the reduction of mental illness stigma, encourage conversations around mental illness, and create a safe environment for individuals to share and seek help surrounding their mental illness (Catholic Mental Health Ministry Guidelines, 2019). Our mission is to help create pastoral environments where people living with mental illness can meet, share their experiences and their Catholic faith with others, and to grow spiritually in their relationship with God. Remember, you are not alone. Get more information about the Office of Mental Health Ministry here: https://dphx.org/mentalhealth/
