Patriarch Bartholomew, acknowledging the priestly ordination of Pope Leo XIV, gave His Holiness a beautiful bejeweled priestly stole which was then placed upon the Pope.
Pope Leo gave Patriarch Bartholomew a beautiful icon of Jesus Christ. Of course, the Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of God. She is also Co-Redemptrix and Co-Mediatrix—wonderful titles, only appropriate for private devotion although no formal doctrines or dogmas exists in the East or the West.
