“More than 2 million people gathered Monday near the Monumento de los Españoles, a landmark along one of Buenos Aires’ main boulevards, to attend Pope Leo XIV’s first mass in Argentina, according to estimates from the Buenos Aires city government. The gathering was the largest of his papacy so far and marked a historic occasion after nearly 40 years without a papal visit to Argentina. … Before celebrating mass, Leo began the second day of his visit to Argentina at the Pequeño Cottolengo Don Orione in Claypole, a residential care facility for people with disabilities, where he stressed that a country’s dignity is measured by its commitment to inclusion, newspaper La Nacion reported.” (11/09/26)
