White smoke rose from the Sistine Chapel chimney today. The smoke tells everyone a new pope has been chosen. Thousands of people in St. Peter's Square cheered when they saw this sign. This old signal shows cardinals have picked someone to lead the Catholic Church.

The new pope will soon step onto the main balcony at St. Peter's Basilica. A senior church leader will say Habemus Papam, meaning "We have a Pope." He will then tell the world what name the new church leader has picked. The election happened during a secret meeting of 120 cardinals from many countries. They gathered to find a replacement after Pope Francis died earlier this year.

Catholics worldwide wait to hear the first words from their new leader. His appearance will start a fresh chapter for the church. The Vatican prepares for changes under new leadership. Religious followers hope for guidance from their upcoming shepherd. The Catholic faith continues its long story with this important moment.
