Pope Leo XIV Sends Message to Catholics and Public Life Congress
in Madrid, Where Some 1,300 Gathered for the 28th Edition
The 28th Catholics and Public Life Congress opened on Friday, Nov. 13,
at CEU San Pablo University in Madrid, Spain, and Pope Leo XIV sent a
message to the gathering. About 1,300 participants are taking part in
this year's congress, which runs through Sunday.
The motto of this edition is 'America and Spain: the faith that unites
us. A round trip.' The pope's message was read aloud by Bishop Raimo
Goyarrola, and the document was signed by Apostolic Nuncio Archbishop
Piero Pioppo.
In his message, the pope said the spirit of the Gospel must bind Spain
and America together.
The congress is organized by the Asociación Católica de Propagandistas
(ACdP) and the Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU. ACdP president
José Masip also addressed the gathering.
