Fr. Tony Pizzo Speaks About Pope Leo XIV at St. Bernard

This May, St. Bernard Parish in Homer Glen welcomed Fr. Tony Pizzo, O.S.A., Prior Provincial of the Midwest Augustinians, for a moving conversation, where he reflected on his time spent with Pope Leo XIV, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost, O.S.A., during the first days of his pontificate.

Fr. Tony, who has known Pope Leo for over 50 years, offered unique insights into the Holy Father’s character, spirituality, and pastoral vision. The event drew a full crowd of people eager to hear firsthand stories from someone closely connected to the new pope and to the Augustinian tradition in which they share. Set in the parish’s sanctuary, the evening served as both a personal witness and a celebration of Pope Leo’s historic election.

A full video recording of Fr. Tony's talk is now available on the Midwest Augustinians’ YouTube channel for those interested in learning more.
