Pope Leo XIV is a dual citizen of the USA and Peru Pope Leo XIV is a dual citizen of the USA and Peru, making him the first Pope from the USA and the second from South America (Pope Francis being the first). He is also the first Pope from the Order of St Augustine. Signficantly, Pope Leo is known for his extensive missionary work with the poor and disadvantaged in Peru. He became the Bishop of Chiclayo, Peru in 2015.

But, there is more to know about our new Pontiff!

From a young age Pope Leo wanted to be a Priest – often playing ‘priest’ using an ironing board as an altar! He has a Degree in Mathematics, a Master of Divinity, and a Doctorate in Canon Law. He speaks Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, some German, and of course, English. He can also read Latin. Pope Leo loves to play tennis, read, travel, discover new places, and challenge his brothers at Wordle and Words with Friends. 

‘I enjoy relaxing with friends and meeting a diverse range of people
whose gifts I learn from and appreciate greatly.’ –Pope Leo, 2023

Gain a new perspective on life with our May Book of the Month!

PERSPECTIVES by Christopher Monaghan is a collection of beautiful photos and warm reflections that invites readers to take a few moments to consider their lives and the world from different perspectives. 

Each evocative photo, taken by Christopher, was chosen for its simple beauty, or how the light played on the subject, or other times for the meaning that emerged only after stopping, waiting, and listening. 

In a world of fear, division, and conflict, PERSPECTIVES is a timely reminder that grace and beauty are everywhere – if we slow down and take the time to stop and look. 

PERSPECTIVES will enable you to see for yourself how the mundane and the ordinary can be transformed – in a moment – into something luminous, and, as a result, it enriches your life’s journey.

Pope Leo XIV’s official coat of arms has now bee Pope Leo XIV’s official coat of arms has now been made public.

Unsurprisingly rooted in Augustinian spirituality, Leo XIV’s papal coat of arms shows a shield divided diagonally.  In the upper section, against a blue background, stands a white lily, a symbol of purity and spiritual dedication. The lower section, on a lighter background, depicts a heart pierced by an arrow, resting on a closed book. This is a clear nod to St Augustine who described the transformative effect scripture had on his life  on his life and inspired by the Latin expression Vulnerasti cor meum verbo tuo (‘You pierced my heart with your Word’).

Pope Leo's motto, visible under the shield, is In Illo uno unum (‘in the one, we are one’) – (taken from St Augustine’s Exposition on Psalm 127, where he explains that ‘although we Christians are many, in the one Christ we are one’). This highlights the new pontiff's fidelity to the Augustinian heritage, and calls for spiritual unity of the church under one shepherd.

The chapters on each beatitude offer practical and informed wisdom in a voice that is reflective and sees our connectedness with the world and the cosmos. This book is deceptively simple and is enriched by a long life of reading, teaching, thoughtfulness and prayer.

—Anne Benjamin DSG

Honorary Professor ACU, educator and writer

The challenge confronting the future of Catholic schools is how to maintain their unique identity for the benefit of pupils, families and nation. The person of Jesus Christ and his mission are the foundations of this identity. Teachers must not only know these foundations but be committed to living them. … I wholeheartedly recommend this urgently needed praxis-oriented book by two highly skilled and committed educationalists.

—Gerald A Arbuckle, SM

Author, Intentional Faith Communities in Catholic Education: Challenge and Response

The sacraments of initiation are major events in the faith journeys of Catholic children. How, then, to foster their understanding of these sacraments? How to lead them to celebrate the sacraments richly? Kathy Horan’s Becoming Catholic series offers an accessible, imaginative, and engaged way for children to prepare for these sacraments with their families and parishes. A helpful ‘parent’s guide’ explains the process and informs parents about the meaning of the sacraments.

—Rev Dr James McEvoy

Senior Lecturer in Theology, ACU Adelaide

Kathleen Donnellon has created a terrific resource. This is a really clear and engaging book on such an important topic. The anecdotes are excellent: candid and insightful.

—Virginia Bourke

Pro Chancellor, Australian Catholic University, Chair of the Board of Mercy Health

For too long, Australian churches – particularly the Catholic Church – have silenced and ignored the voices of women. In Her Voice showcases the diversity, rich theological understandings, and preaching talents of women. … It is my hope that In Her Voice, alongside the Australian Women Preach podcast, will play some part in correcting the current inaction regarding the marginalisation of women in Australian churches.

—Dr Tracy McEwan

Ex-vice-president of WATAC Inc. and co-convenor of the Australian Women Preach team

Great resources scaffolding inquiry into the Bible and particularly the Old Testament are rare! Know Your Bible brings the Old and New testaments to life for students. It supports teachers with an inquiry approach to the teaching of Religious Education and answers those most asked questions of students. It’s comprehensive and highly readable.
