After his emotional homecoming Wednesday, the Peruvian pope got down to business and turned to the challenges facing a church and country he knows well.
This is a homecoming for Pope Leo who spent decades in the South American country before being called to Rome in 2023. He is a naturalized Peruvian citizen and often speaks Spanish with his followers.

An estimated 3 million people greeted Pope Leo XIV in Lima as the Peruvian-citizen pontiff began a six-day homecoming visit to the country where he spent two decades as a missionary and bishop.
Peruvians have good reason to celebrate Leo's return, especially since Pope Francis never returned to his homeland of Argentina after departing for the 2013 conclave where he was elected pope.
