Pope Leo XIV to send message to Assisi peace meeting

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV will send a message to the peace meeting in Assisi after deciding not to attend the event in person. The meeting, titled "Disarmed and Disarming Peace," is organized by the Community of Sant'Egidio and runs through October 27.

The gathering includes 384 participants from 53 countries. Attendees include Patriarch Bartolomeo I, Archbishop of Canterbury Sarah Mullally, Rabbi Haim Korsia, and Cardinal Matteo Zuppi. The event is held in collaboration with the diocese and the Franciscan families of Assisi.

The program includes an inauguration on October 25 at UmbriaFiere in Bastia, followed by 24 forums on October 26 and the morning of October 27. These sessions will take place in various locations between Assisi and Santa Maria degli Angeli. Community of Sant'Egidio president Marco Impagliazzo noted that the meeting seeks to uphold the spirit of the original Assisi gatherings initiated by Pope John Paul II.
