The Pope is the leader of the worldwide Catholic Church (that is, the Latin Rite and the Eastern Catholic Churches in full communion with the Roman Pontiff).Catholics recognize the Pope as a successor to Saint Peter, whom, according to The Bible, Jesus named as the "shepherd" and "rock" of the Church.
