President Mattarella is poised to inaugurate the forthcoming Social Catholic Week on July 3rd in Piazza Unità, it has been confirmed. While the event promises to be inclusive, attendees are reminded to secure passes in advance, available at their local churches. This significant announcement sets the stage for a week of profound reflection and dialogue.
Following this momentous kickoff, all eyes will turn to the anticipated finale as Pope Francis is slated to bring closure to the 50th Social Week of Italian Catholics in Trieste on Sunday, July 7th.
The decision to grant Pope Francis a prominent role in the closing ceremony underscores the gravity of this landmark Social Week, where devout Catholics convene to tackle pressing societal issues and engage in thought-provoking discussions.
From July 3rd to July 7th, 2024, the 50th Social Week will unfold as a pivotal platform for meaningful discourse and introspection, guided by the fundamental tenets of the Catholic Church. Against the backdrop of Trieste’s rich cultural tapestry, participants will gather to delve into topics of paramount importance. While in Trieste, Pope Francis will be greeted by the representatives of various categories, such as university students, teachers, church representatives, as well as the disabled and immigrants, “because Pope Francis always talks about the need for universal hospitality,” added bishop Trevisi.
Pope Francis is slated to deliver a poignant message to attendees and preside over Mass on July 7th and the event itself is poised to draw a diverse array of participants from across regions, fostering a palpable sense of solidarity within the Catholic community.
