(News Nation) – “The Holy Cow, this is a nut,” said Louis Prevast, who saw Pope Leo XIV live on TV last week.
“It’s shocking, it calms the mind, it blows the mind. How do you explain it? I don’t know,” Louis Previsto told Nexstar’s News Nation. “I still don’t understand how to convey my feelings to anyone except in my head that I am obsessed with happiness, pride, joy and love for my brother.”
Prevost discovered that his brother was 267th and found that in the history of the first American-born Catholic Church, there was a Pope, just like everyone else.
“When he came on, it turned out to be real,” he said. “It’s one thing to hear his name, but when Rob came out on the balcony and saw him, it brought tears to my eyes. You know it’s my brother. He’s the Pope now.”
Prevost is not the leader of 1.4 billion Catholics, but his brothers will be hosting the masses.
“I don’t know how to explain it mentally,” he said. “He was special. When we went to play games when we were kids, he wanted to play a priest. How many little kids do you want to play a priest?”
The three brothers, the Chicago family, all attended Catholic schools.
“As soon as he got out of eighth grade he went straight to the seminary,” Prevost said. “It’s like knowing what he wants to do and having more power in him, and he’s very successful with that, right?”
He said he could see his brother become a kind of “travel pope” trying to bring peace.
“Maybe he goes to some of these countries he actually fights and gets into the crisis of battle, and talks to his leader there and says, “There’s a better way than killing each other.” ”
