Pope Leo XIV received a highly enthusiastic welcome at the Catholic influencer festival held at the Vatican, drawing comparisons to a rock star reception. The event was part of the annual Jubilee of Youth pilgrimage, which included a mass attended by numerous Catholic digital influencers, also referred to as "missionaries digital." The Pope's engagement with young Catholics is seen as a pivotal moment in the Holy Year, with expectations of up to one million attendees at the Jubilee of the Youth. Thousands of young people from around the world gathered in Rome, particularly at Tor Vergata, eagerly awaiting the Pope's appearance. The festival and the Pope's presence have contributed to what some describe as the emergence of a "Leon generation" seeking spirituality. Additionally, a continuous prayer vigil has been maintained since August 1, 1885, in the basilica before the Blessed Sacrament, underscoring the deep spiritual context of the event.
