A night out w/ @robertsmith of @thecure led me to start The Catholic Traveler. I’m the reason @chickfila says “my pleasure.” Yes, my name is Mountain.

In the coming months, all of the nearly 1,000 churches of Rome will need to begin removing the coat of arms of Pope Francis and replace them with the coat of arms of Pope Leo. It took well over a year last time. One church in Rome already has Leo’s, kind of, his titular church of

It’s kind of funny to think that of all the cardinals who commuted to the meetings each day leading up the conclave, the media never had a chance to shove a camera and mic into the face of Cardinal Prevost since he already lived within the walls of the Vatican. The only chance

Seems all those people with “sources” inside the Vatican were wrong yet again. Pope Leo will be active on X and Insta. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Papal reaction video from the front row… We may have been a bit excited to see the mozzetta return 😂 and we were already beaming over the name, Pope Leo XIV. Pope Leo XIV Leo Papa XIV Not in this video was the “scarpe rosse” chant. 😂

Pretty sure this refers to the cars the pope rides outside the Vatican when he’s out and about in Rome. The pope mobile used the same plate with Pope Francis even until his final ride.

Did anyone happen to catch that Pope Leo is wearing white pants? And I know some of you think "who cares?" Not every post needs to be profound, some things are just fun bits of trivia. Plus, it's a nice aesthetic.

Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought Lourdes covered up all these mosaics. I guess they only covered them up the same way Father Rupnik’s superiors covered up his years of abuse. Sanctuaire Notre-Dame de Lourdes 👎🏻

Pope Leo continues to return to tradition. Summering at Castel Gandolfo to resume July 6. This is such a great and intimate spot to attend the Sunday Angelus.

Maybe this has happened before, but I can’t recall any of the previous popes *walking* the Corpus Christi Eucharistic Procession from Saint John Lateran to Santa Maria Maggiore. It’s really beautiful to see. It’s only about a mile, but it’s currently around 90° F / 31° C, and

A good friend in Jerusalem sent me this photo. The Holy Sepulcher is closed. While is may seem obvious things would be closed when rockets are being launched, it’s still a bit of a shock to see.
