Pope Leo’s first Christmas Eve Mass in Vatican City

We have all the live coverage this holiday season as Pope Leo XIV presides over his first Christmas Eve Mass at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. This comes after earlier this week when Pope Leo XIV made an appeal for “one full day of peace throughout the world” in a Christmas address outside Castel Gandolfo in Rome. “I once again make this appeal to all people of good will: that, at least on the feast of the birth of the Savior, one day of peace may be respected,” the first American pontiff said Tuesday.
