  • Excitement rippled through New York City's St. Patrick's Cathedral on Sunday morning, the first since an American was picked to lead the Roman Catholic Church in a selection that surprised and delighted many of his countrymen and women. At Sunday Mass, the landmark, Gothic-style church - the focal point of Catholicism in the most populous U.S. city - was brimming with worshippers eager to celebrate the unexpected achievement of Chicago native Robert Prevost, now known as Pope Leo XIV. On the steps leading to the cathedral gates, Patrick Sheridan, who came to the Mass from Jersey, stood alongside his wife Mary.

The article from Yahoo News discusses how Americans in New York celebrated Easter Sunday with a special mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral, marking the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The mass was also live-streamed for those unable to attend, reflecting a blend of tradition and modern technology in the observance of this important Christian holiday.
