The ceremony, filled with ancient rituals, will feature Leo receiving the pallium (a stole-like vestment) and the fisherman’s ring, symbolizing his role as Peter's successor and shepherd of the church. The Mass will include traditional elements like prayers, readings, a homily, and Communion, with key parts in Latin and Greek.
