Iglesia Noticia Cope en León y Villablino | 11 OCT 26

The Diocese of León celebrated the solemnity of its patron, San Froilán, with a pilgrimage to the Basilica of the Virgen del Camino. During the Mass, Bishop Luis Ángel encouraged the faithful to build a more just and fraternal society. The diocese also presented the San Froilán awards to various community initiatives for their contributions to the common good.

To support social advocacy, the diocese established a new area of Pastoral del Trabajo and an area dedicated to the care of creation. These changes follow the diocese's participation in the Jornada por el Trabajo Decente, where a Mass and public event were held to advocate for dignified employment and affordable housing.

In educational news, professor Nicanor Martínez delivered the inaugural lecture for the academic year at the Instituto Superior de Teología de Astorga y León and the Escuela Beato Antero Mateo, discussing the relevance of philosophy to human knowledge. Other diocesan activities included a Mass for the patron saint of the Guardia Civil and the diocese receiving the medalla de oro de León.
