After a year and a half, a familiar scene repeats. This is how the pope arrived in Genazzano, home to the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Counsel — a Marian devotion closely tied to both Prevost and Pope Leo XIV.
The pontiff has turned to Mary in prayer at key moments in his life. For example, after he was elected prior of the Augustinians. It was also the destination of his first surprise outing as pope. This time, he came to celebrate the Mass for the Nativity of Mary.
