Join us for the latest edition of “Roman Nights” where Ambassador Antonio Zanardi Landi, Reverend David Hulshof, and Doctor Alessandro Pernigo come together to reflect on the importance of church and charity in today’s world. From the role of charity in the formation of seminarians to the concrete help provided by Catholic charities, such as the Order of Malta, we will explore how Christian charity can bridge the gap between haves and have-nots. We will also discuss how it can serve those on the peripheries, such as the isolated, lonely, and elderly, and why no AI robot can replace the personal relationship that people crave. Join us as we explore how Christian charity brings people closer to each other and ultimately, closer to Christ.
