His Holiness Pope LEO XIV
Sovereign of the Vatican City State
Supreme Pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church
Sir,
On behalf of the Kaharagian people and with profound joy in my heart, I extend to Your Holiness my warmest congratulations upon your election as Bishop of Rome. Having served the Church faithfully for decades as priest, bishop, and cardinal, most recently as Prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, you bring to the Petrine ministry a wealth of pastoral experience, deep theological insight, and an abiding love for the People of God.
Your election follows in the noble footsteps of the late Pope Francis, whose humility, pastoral charity, and concern for the peripheries captured the hearts of millions. We are confident that you will preserve and build upon his legacy, continuing his loving service of the poor and his ardent call to care for our common home. Under your leadership, may the Church grow ever more fervent in prayer, joyful in witness, and generous in charity.
As Prince of Kaharagia, I offer to Your Holiness my personal prayers, as well as the prayers and best wishes of our nation and people. May Almighty God bless you, guard you in health, and grant you wisdom and perseverance in your apostolic labours. I impart to you, Your Holiness, the assurance of my profound respect and highest esteem.
