    In addressing Americans for the first time, Pope Leo XIV shared guidance with young individuals on Saturday about finding hope and purpose through God and by serving others.

    “Many people facing experiences of depression or sorrow can find healing and hope in God’s love,” mentioned the first American pope during a video presentation at Chicago’s White Sox baseball stadium.

    The event, held in Leo’s hometown at the stadium of his preferred major league team, was arranged by the Archdiocese of Chicago to celebrate his recent papal election. Leo took this chance to connect with the youth, relating his message to the Catholic Church’s ongoing Jubilee year of hope initiated by Pope Francis.

    In Saturday’s message, Leo urged those listening in the stadium and online to be beacons of hope capable of inspiring others.

    “To share that message of hope with one another — in outreach, in service, in looking for ways to make our world a better place — gives true life to all of us, and is a sign of hope for the whole world.”

    The afternoon program, emceed by Chicago Bulls announcer Chuck Swirsky, highlighted Leo’s roots, including music by the city’s Leo Catholic High School Choir and a musician from Peru, according to the event’s program. There was also a discussion featuring a former teacher of the pope as well as a high school classmate and fellow Augustinian.

    The event also celebrated the mixing of Catholicism and baseball, including a special invitation from the team for Leo to throw out a ceremonial first pitch at a future White Sox game.

    Leo, formerly Robert Prevost, was elected May 8, becoming the first American pope in the 2,000-year history of the church. Leo, 69, spent his career serving as an Augustinian missionary and ministering in Peru before taking over the Vatican’s powerful office of bishops. He succeeded Pope Francis, who died April 21.

    “When I see each and every one of you, when I see how people gather together to celebrate their faith, I discover myself how much hope there is in the world,” Leo said in the video message.

    The program was followed by a Mass celebrated by Cardinal Blase Cupich, the archbishop of Chicago who was part of the conclave that elected Leo.
