Before more than one hundred and fifty international delegations and more than two hundred thousand faithful, under the attentive gaze of Our Lady of Good Counsel, located next to the altar in St. Peter's Square, Pope Leo XIV began his pontificate with a solemn Mass marked by a central message: love and unity as the axis of the mission that Christ entrusted to Peter.
