On the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, Pope Leo XIV blessed and imposed the pallia on 35 new metropolitan archbishops, continuing one of the Church's oldest traditions.
What is the pallium?
1️⃣ A white woolen band symbolizing communion with the Pope and pastoral authority.
2️⃣ It is placed at the tomb of St. Peter before being blessed, signifying apostolic succession.
3️⃣ It has been worn by metropolitan archbishops for over a millennium.
4️⃣ It is woven from lamb's wool blessed each year on the Feast of St. Agnes.
5️⃣ Nuns take care of the lambs and craft the pallia.
6️⃣ It symbolizes the Good Shepherd carrying Christ's flock, especially the lost and vulnerable.
The pallium is a powerful reminder that every bishop is called to shepherd God's people in communion with the Successor of Peter. Pray today for these 35 new metropolitan archbishops.
