An official publication for the Jubilee Year 2025.
Pope Francis often reminds us that faith “is a road to be traveled, without ever losing the goal,” and this is the theme that forms the background to the meditations contained in this brief anthology. It is a collection of significant passages from the Pontiff’s speeches, given on various occasions of meetings with the faithful, and is intended to offer food for thought in light of the Jubilee 2025 in particular, as its motto is “Pilgrims of Hope.”
Pope Francis, original name Jorge Mario Bergoglio, (born December 17, 1936, Buenos Aires, Argentina), was the bishop of Rome and the leader of the Roman Catholic Church (2013–2025 ). He was the first pope from the Western Hemisphere, the first from South America, and the first from the Jesuit order.
