CCCB Welcomes Pope Leo XIV with Rejoicing and Prayers. Today, the Church in Canada and throughout the world rejoices, as His Eminence Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost, O.S.A., after being duly elected by the College of Cardinals, has accepted to become the 267th Bishop of Rome, successor of Saint Peter, and vicar of Christ on earth!

I wish to inform you that the CCCB has expanded its social media presence with the recent launch of official accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. These new channels complement our existing presence on X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube, and are part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen our outreach and engagement with the faithful…

As we mourn the death of our Holy Father, Francis, the faithful are encouraged to participate in liturgical celebrations (Eucharist, Liturgy of the Hours, Eucharistic Adoration) and devotional prayers arranged by their dioceses and parishes.
