01:21the first U.S. Cardinal to be appointed as Pope,

01:27and this is the peace of the risen Christ.

01:29And is now Leo XIV.

01:32A peace that is disarming and humble and persevering.

01:36It comes from God who loves all of us without any limits and conditions.

01:44And we still have the sound in our ears of the weak voice of Pope Francis,

01:58who is blessing Rome here.

02:03We have that fresh in our minds, in our hearts, in our ears, hearing his voice.

02:07The Pope who was blessing Rome,

02:11giving his blessing to the world

02:15on that morning, on that day of Easter Sunday.

02:22Allow me to continue that same blessing.

02:27God loves everyone.

02:32Evil will not prevail.

02:34We are all in the hands of God.

02:36So, without fear,

02:41united,

02:45hand in hand,

02:46with God and among ourselves,

02:48we go forward.

02:49We are disciples of Christ.

02:54Christ goes before us.

02:58The world needs his light.

03:03Humanity needs him.

03:06As the bridge between God and his love.

03:16May we all build bridges

03:18with dialogue and encounter

03:21so that we can all be

03:25one people,

08:03Poppio XIV there.

08:04Poppio XIV,

08:06very interesting.

08:06A few things coming out already there,

08:09for me,

08:09we're looking at the first statements

08:12made by Pope Leo XIV,

08:16just addressed

08:1810 Peter Square for the first time.

08:22Peace be with you.

08:23God's peace be with you.

08:24He thanked Pope Francis for his legacy,

08:29and he also made and sent a specific message in Spanish to his community,

08:40the community that he worked with in Peru.

08:43We had previously mentioned that one of his significant works as his trajectory that brought him here

08:56was his missionary service in the northern region of Peru, in Latin America.

09:02So he addressed the square in Spanish at that occasion,

09:09thanking that community that also accompanied him

09:12in a clear gesture towards the Latin American community that was gathered there

09:24and was received with cheers.

09:26Those were the first statements.

09:30We continue to listen to the new Pope.

09:32The Holy Apostles, Peter and Paul.

09:43And we also pray to the Blessed Mary,

09:51Beate Ioannis Baptiste,

09:54et Sanctorum Apostolorum Petri,

09:56et Pauli, et Omnium Sanctorum,

10:00miseriatur vestri Omnipotens Deus,

11:15giving the Orbe at Orbe blessing,

11:19to that,

11:20all of us and all of you,

11:22Let's recall that a blessing was also the last gesture of Pope Francis on that Easter Sunday,

11:34his last appearance before that same square.

12:08an experimented member
