The priests remember Pope Leo XIV, Vicar of Saint Peter and Servus servorum Dei, by name at Mass in the Canon, and he deserves our prayers: but none need think him a saint nor agree with his ecclesiastical and temporal policies. 'Cor ingrediens duas vias non habebit successus'.

20 years ago in Mech Eng stress/strain class, we got our midterm exams back and they were a bloodbath. No partial credit given. Someone asked the Turkish TA why, she said, "If mess up calculations on a bridge and it collapses, do you expect to get partial credit?"

Note that this doesn't work if the Church is locked all week.
One of our staff members ordered lunch from DoorDash. The driver went to the wrong door and accidentally came into the cathedral when the office is next door. He had never been in a Catholic church. He was struck by the beauty.
He made the delivery, went home and started researching Catholicism. He just started OCIA.
Beauty attracts.
