Pope Leo XIV visits San Marino and Rimini
Pope Leo XIV conducted a pastoral visit to the Republic of San Marino and Rimini, Italy, participating in the 47th Meeting for Friendship Among Peoples. In San Marino, the Pope addressed authorities on the relationship between personal freedom and human dignity, emphasizing that liberty is a bond built on conscience rather than mere autonomy.
In Rimini, the Pope delivered a homily at the seaside port to a large crowd, calling for social responsibility. He urged leaders to protect coexistence from suspicion, culture from arrogance, and work from the idolatry of profit. He also addressed the youth, encouraging them to pursue their missions with enthusiasm.
Following the visit, the Diocese of Rimini announced three concrete commitments: providing a football field for inmates at the Rimini prison, contributing to a health center in Gaza, and launching initiatives for migrant integration. The visit generated significant digital engagement, with millions of video views and high levels of social media interaction across various platforms.
