When the White Smoke Clears: A Guide to the Early Days of Pope Leo XIV

What does it mean to have a new pope? In an historic time for the Church, the election of a new Holy Father invites Catholics to return to the heart of the papacy—its biblical foundation, its spiritual authority, the hope it brings us, and our shared responsibility to pray for the pope as our universal pastor.

This timely and accessible book offers three key reflections:

• What the Church teaches about the office of the pope and why it matters
• Who Pope Leo XIV is, and what his early words and actions reveal
• How we can faithfully support Pope Leo XIV through prayer, fasting, and attentiveness to his teaching

Includes an appendix of traditional and contemporary prayers for the Holy Father. Paperback, 4.5 x 6.5. (©2025)
