- Great Greek dinner & fun evening with my g’daughter, her partner & my co-grandmother last night.
- I’m within shouting distance of completing this abbreviated family history project (from 1636-1955). I’m stopping at 8th grade as no one gets to see my high school, college & 1970’s secrets. 🤣

Agi: Papa Leone compie 71 anni, la 'festa' sobria tra preghiera e lavoro
AGI - Settantuno anni vissuti con lo stile sobrio che ha caratterizzato fin dall'inizio il suo Pontificato. Papa Leone XIV festeggia oggi il compleanno lontano da celebrazioni solenni, scegliendo la normalità della vita quotidiana, tra la preghiera, gli impegni di governo della Chiesa e la vicinanza ai collaboratori.
Il Papa compie 71 anni
Robert Francis Prevost è nato il 14 settembre 1955 a Chicago, negli Stati Uniti. Religioso agostiniano, ha trascorso oltre vent'anni come missionario in Perù, dove ha condiviso la vita delle comunità più povere prima di diventare vescovo di Chiclayo, dopo essere stato per 12 anni superiore generale degli agostiniani.
Nessun protagonismo personale
Un'esperienza pastorale che continua a segnare profondamente il suo modo di intendere il ministero petrino: essenziale, attento alle periferie e orientato all'ascolto.
Dalla sua elezione, l'8 maggio 2025, Leone XIV ha evitato ogni forma di protagonismo personale. Anche in occasione del compleanno, secondo quanto si apprende in Vaticano, non sono previsti eventi pubblici particolari né ricevimenti ufficiali.
Il compleanno tra preghiera e lavoro
La giornata si svolge secondo l'agenda ordinaria, con momenti di preghiera, incontri di lavoro e gli auguri riservati dei collaboratori e dei fedeli. La ricorrenza cade in un momento intenso per la vita della Chiesa. Il Papa è impegnato nella preparazione del cammino sinodale, nelle iniziative per la pace e nei prossimi viaggi apostolici, mentre continua a richiamare con insistenza il valore del dialogo, della riconciliazione e della fraternità tra i popoli.
Gli auguri da tutto il mondo
Molti messaggi di auguri sono giunti da diocesi, conferenze episcopali e comunità cattoliche di tutto il mondo. Un affetto che i fedeli esprimono soprattutto attraverso la preghiera, nel solco del desiderio più volte manifestato dal predecessore Francesco: "Pregate per me", richiesta semplice e costante che accompagna ogni suo incontro pubblico.
Per Leone XIV, il settantunesimo compleanno non diventa così una celebrazione della persona, ma un'altra tappa di un servizio vissuto con discrezione, nel segno dell'umiltà evangelica e della responsabilità verso la Chiesa universale.
Pope Leo celebrates his 71st birthday, a modest celebration of prayer and work.
Pope Leo XIV is celebrating his 71st birthday today in a simple manner, far from solemn celebrations, choosing the normality of daily life between prayer, Church governance duties, and closeness to collaborators.
Robert Francis Prevost was born on September 14, 1955, in Chicago, USA. A religious Augustinian, he spent over twenty years as a missionary in Peru, where he shared the lives of the poorest communities before becoming Bishop of Chiclayo, after being Superior General of the Augustinians for 12 years.
No personal protagonism
A pastoral experience that continues to deeply mark his understanding of the Petrine ministry: essential, attentive to the peripheries and oriented towards listening.
Since his election on May 8, 2025, Leo XIV has avoided any form of personal protagonism. Even on his birthday, according to what is learned in the Vatican, no particular public events or official receptions are planned.
The birthday between prayer and work
The day unfolds according to the ordinary agenda, with moments of prayer, working meetings and best wishes reserved for collaborators and the faithful. The anniversary falls at an intense time for the life of the Church. The Pope is engaged in preparing the Synodal Path, initiatives for peace and upcoming papal trips, while continuing to insist on the value of dialogue, reconciliation and fraternity among peoples.
Best wishes from around the world
Many messages of good wishes have arrived from dioceses, Episcopal conferences and Catholic communities throughout the world. A love that the faithful express especially through prayer, in line with the repeatedly expressed desire of his predecessor Francis: "Pray for me," a simple and constant request accompanying every public meeting.
For Leo XIV, the seventy-first birthday does not become a celebration of the person, but another stage of service lived with discretion, in the sign of evangelical humility and responsibility towards the universal Church.

there are no fears of a Catholic schism: this sect was #PopeRat’s fuck you to #VaticanoII when he decided to “unexcommunicate” them.
#PopeFrancis gave them a pass but defunded them whilst busy appointing the most bishops and cardinals in the history of the Catholic church.
#PopeLeoXIV just told them last week their ass is grass if they went ahead with this #MAGA fuckery.

Business Latest | Why the Vatican Invited Anthropic to the Pope’s AI Encyclical Presentation by Daniele Polidoro
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
When Pope Leo XIV unveiled his first AI‑focused encyclical, “Magnifica Humanitas,” he invited Christopher Olah, a leading Anthropic researcher, to speak—signaling an unprecedented partnership between the Vatican and Silicon Valley. Anthropic, founded in 2021 by former OpenAI researchers, has built its reputation on AI safety and “Constitutional AI,” embedding ethical principles directly into model behavior. This alignment with the Church stems from the Vatican’s evolving role from a moral observer to an active interlocutor in tech, exemplified by the 2020 Rome Call for AI Ethics and its growing concerns over AI’s societal impact, concentration of power in a handful of private actors, and the risk of a “digital Babylon” or “Hiroshima of the 21st century.” Both the encyclical and Anthropic stress that artificial intelligence is not neutral; it reflects the values of its creators and must be governed through shared ethical frameworks rather than left to industry self‑regulation alone.

Il Tempo: Vaticano, il Papa incontra Rubio: "Coltivare buoni rapporti". Sul tavolo anche Cuba
Il momento tanto atteso è finalmente giunto. Stamattina, a un anno preciso dal suo insediamento, Papa Leone XIV ha incontrato in Vaticano il segretario di Stato Usa Marco Rubio. Il vertice è stato l'occasione per rinnovare il comune impegno a "coltivare buone relazioni bilaterali" fra le parti, oltre che un momento per lo scambio di vedute attorno al dossier regionale e internazionale con particolare attenzione ai conflitti globali in corso. Il meeting è durato circa 45 minuti e ha toccato temi come Medio Oriente, Iran, Libano, Africa e anche "la situazione a Cuba" verso cui è stata ribadita la "necessità" di "dare sostegno al popolo in questo momento difficile". L'inviato di Washington si è poi incontrato anche col suo omologo Pietro Parolin e Monsignor Paul R. Gallagher.

DaPope doesn’t have to excommunicate Sean Hannity anymore because he’s EXCOMMUNIMAXXING, now with turboblasphemy and 1000% more heresy.
PS: who knew #PopeLeoXIV, the incognegro formerly known as Robert Prevost, would make #popewatching so much fun. for once there is a dude in the Vatican ready to brawl with genocidal gringos hiding behind the cross.

Il Tempo: Papa Leone XIV a Monaco tra cattedrale e Palazzo del Principe
Monaco, 28 mar. (askanews) - Papa Leone XIV ha visitato oggi il Principato di Monaco, accolto dal principe Alberto II e dalla principessa Charlène. Le immagini mostrano il Pontefice in papamobile tra i fedeli, poi nella cattedrale di Notre-Dame Immaculée per l'omelia e quindi al Palazzo del Principe, dove si affaccia con Alberto II e Charlène davanti alla folla radunata nella piazza. Nel corso della visita, il Papa ha richiamato il tema del divario tra ricchi e poveri e l'uso della ricchezza al servizio della giustizia e della pace. Si tratta della prima visita di un pontefice a Monaco dal 1538.
Il Papa ha richiamato la necessità che la ricchezza non venga trattenuta ma condivisa e ha invitato a respingere le logiche di onnipotenza che feriscono il mondo e mettono a rischio la pace.
