Pope Leo XIV marks 40 years of the Spirit of Assisi

First source report

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV has invited religions to rediscover their own roots as an antidote to hatred and violence. This call coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Day of Prayer for Peace, which Pope John Paul II convened on October 27, 1986.

The legacy of the Spirit of Assisi has continued through four pontificates. Pope Benedict XVI extended the dialogue to include non-believers, and Pope Francis has called for fraternity.
