Pope will retrace his missionary footsteps in Peru and finally visit Argentina in November

On Monday, The Vatican published the detailed itinerary for Pope Leo XIV's first Apostolic Journey to Latin America. The 12-day trip spans Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru, covering ten cities over just 31,000 kilometers of flight time.
Leo will arrive in Uruguay on November 6, where he will mark an important Catholic feast day honoring Our Lady of the Thirty-Three. The visit's theme, "I bring you news of great joy," ties to this celebration.
Marking the first papal visit since 1987, the pontiff travels to Argentina from November 8 to 11. In Buenos Aires, Leo will visit a federal prison, echoing the prison ministry of his predecessor, Pope Francis.
Returning to his roots in Peru, Leo concludes the trip by visiting his former diocese of Chiclayo from November 11 to 17. The pontiff holds Peruvian citizenship and spent two decades there as a priest and bishop.
Covering vast distances, the 71-year-old Leo maintains a rigorous schedule, mirroring his previous four-nation Africa tour in April. The mission emphasizes a shared journey toward faith and proclamation across the region.
