Tomorrow, the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, is a special day in the life of the Church because 48 metropolitan archbishops from around the world, including Archbishop Jeffrey Grob, the recently installed Archbishop of Milwaukee, will receive their pallium from Pope Leo XIV at St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican! The pallium is a woolen liturgical vestment, worn exclusively by the pope and metropolitan archbishops, that symbolizes the authority of Christ and the call of the pope and archbishops to imitate Jesus, the Good Shepherd.
