Archbishop of Valencia presides over Eucharist and Vigil

Archbishop Enrique Benavent presided over an extraordinary Vigil and Eucharist at the Plaza de la Virgen in Valencia. The event served as a prelude to the closing of the Jubilee Year.

Benavent stated that the upcoming conclusion of this third Eucharistic Jubilee Year will take place on Thursday, October 29, at the Holy Church Cathedral. This local jubilee coincides with the Universal Jubilee Year.

During the event, the Archbishop encouraged the faithful to recognize the needs of migrants, the poor, the elderly, and those living in isolation. He said the Jubilee Year should produce fruits of Christian charity to help believers act as witnesses of hope.
