This week’s newsletter collates all the relevant news from the Vatican:

As the 2025 Jubilee Year unfolds, Christian unity takes focus, with Pope Francis preparing a historic pilgrimage to Nicaea.

Travel with us to Assisi as the Franciscans celebrate 800 years of St. Francis’ “Canticle of the Creatures.”

In his “State of the World” address, Pope Francis called for global peace, diplomacy, and justice amid rising tensions.

In the Vatican, Father Roberto Pasolini begins his role as the new Papal preacher, and Pope Francis baptized 21 children in the Sistine Chapel — encouraging us to recall and celebrate the anniversary of our baptism.
