The Jubilee and the presence of the Pope

This morning, during an important audience with Msgr. Rino Fisichella, pro-prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization, Pope Leo XIV officially confirmed all the events of the current Jubilee that include his presence. This announcement represents a significant moment for the faithful and pilgrims who have gathered to participate in this extraordinary event, which celebrates faith and community.

Return of the Jubilee Audiences on Saturday

One of the most anticipated innovations is the return of the Jubilee Audiences on Saturday. This initiative, which was introduced to offer pilgrims more opportunities to meet and listen to the voice of the Pope, is in addition to the Wednesday General Audience. The decision to restore these audiences was greeted with enthusiasm by participants, who see in this gesture a sign of openness and availability on the part of the Holy Father.

An opportunity for pilgrims

The Jubilee audiences on Saturdays represent an important opportunity for pilgrims to live a unique spiritual experience. During these meetings, the faithful can listen to the Pope's words, receive blessings and participate in moments of collective prayer. The Pope's presence at these events not only strengthens the bond between the Pontiff and his followers, but also offers an opportunity to reflect on the central themes of the Christian faith.
