He is first American pope in Catholic church history; talks to faithful, says peace by with you
-
Robert Francis Prevost became the first pope from the United States on Thursday, picking the papal name Leo XIV after cardinals from around the world elected him leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics.
Tens of thousands of people packed in St. Peter's Square cheered as Prevost appeared on the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, waving with both hands, smiling and bowing.
"Peace be with you," he told the crowds.
White smoke from the Sistine Chapel had billowed into the sky on the cardinals' second day of voting to announce his election in a secret conclave, while the bells of St. Peter's Basilica and churches across Rome rang out.
