Pope Leo XIV is traveling Saturday to northern Italy to pay homage to two figures of Christian devotion: St. Augustine, the inspiration for his religious order, and Mother Frances Cabrini, the patron of migrants who became the first American saint.
Leo’s day trip marks the midway point of his summer 2026 grand tour of Italy, in which the American pope has scheduled a series of Saturday day trips up and down the peninsula and its islands to get to know his new flock. The pope’s first stop Saturday is the Lombardy city of Pavia to pray at the tomb of St. Augustine, the fifth-century titan of early Christianity who centuries later inspired the formation of Leo’s Augustinian religious order.
