Description
Residents in Chiclayo, Peru celebrate outside the cathedral where Pope Leo XIV delivered homilies and interacted with parishioners when he was a bishop.
"The hands of God are here, they are in the Vatican, and they are in Chiclayo now, aren't they?" says Luis Cherco.
The 69-year-old Chicago native first set foot in Peru some four decades ago as a missionary, before becoming bishop of the diocese of Chiclayo in the northwest of the country and gaining citizenship in 2015. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
