Manila Cathedral to hold exhibit for Pope Leo XIV's first Pope Day
In celebration of this year's Pope Day, an exhibit dedicated to Pope Leo XIV will take place, marking the first under his papacy.
The Manila Cathedral, with the Residencia del Arzobispo and the Order of St. Augustine, is holding an exhibit dubbed "With Leo, Our Pope."
The exhibit will feature conclave memoirs of Cardinal Advincula and curated artifacts from the Order of St. Augustine. It will run from June 28 until July 6, 2025.
More details, including the time, have yet to be announced.
The church will also hold a Holy Mass on Pope's Day on June 29 at 6 p.m. It will be presided over by His Excellency, Most Reverend Charles John Brown, Apostolic Nuncio to the Philippines, and His Eminence Jose F. Cardinal Advincula, Archbishop of Manila.
Pope’s Day is celebrated annually during the feast day of St. Peter and St. Paul, the “two pillars of the Church.”
Robert Francis Prevost, who goes by the papal name Pope Leo XIV, was elected as the new leader of the Catholic Church in May, making him the first Augustinian and American-born pope. He's the 267th pontiff succeeding Pope Francis, who served for 12 years—from March 2013 until his death last April.
