Church bell rings in Beatrice for American-born pope

  • On Wednesday, the church in Beatrice where Cardinal Robert Prevost once served tolled its bell to celebrate his election as Pope Leo XIV.
  • The bell ringing was delayed because Pastor Leo Kosch wanted roofers to stop work, timing it just before the new pope’s introduction in Rome.
  • The new pope, an American born in Chicago, was a missionary in Peru and led the Vatican office vetting bishop nominations.
  • Kosch expressed that they were filled with happiness about the election of the new pope, and noted that the children responded with cheers during the announcement.
  • Kosch views Pope Leo XIV as a peaceful man focused on justice and believes the name Leo signals a continued application of Catholic social teaching.
