Pope Leo XIV made his first social media post on Tuesday in which he sent a message of peace, as he seeks to maintain an active social media presence.

Pope Leo XIV had deleted his old, personal social media accounts, which featured posts that criticized the Trump administration.

Pope Leo XIV is now on social media after his election. He posted a message of peace on Instagram and X. Previously, he criticized political leaders on his personal account. Now, that account is gone.

Chicago-born missionary Robert Prevost became the 267th pontiff to lead the Catholic Church in a moment of global turmoil and conflict. In the process, he became the first U.S. pope. Prevost, a 69-year-old member of the Augustinian religious order who spent his career ministering in Peru, took the name Leo XIV.

A social media post criticizing former Nancy Pelosi with a slur and insinuating that Pelosi’s husband is gay, was dredged up for the world to see.

I would like this greeting of peace to resound in your hearts, in your families, and among all people, wherever they may be," he wrote
