Addressing the crowds in St. Peter鈥檚 Square after the Angelus prayer, 杏MAP导航 Francis reminded them  that on Monday, 25 March, he will undertake a pastoral journey to Loreto, in Italy鈥檚 Marche region, where he will visit the House of the Virgin Mary.

鈥淚 have chosen this place in which to sign the Apostolic Exhortation dedicated to Young People鈥� he said, and he asked for prayers 鈥渟o that the Virgin Mary鈥檚 鈥榶es鈥� may be the 鈥榶es鈥� of many of us.鈥�

During his 6-hour visit to the tiny town, home to the Marian Shrine of the Holy House of Loreto, the 杏MAP导航 will sign the post-synodal Apostolic Exhortation, 鈥淰ive Cristo, esperanza nuestra鈥�, the Spanish for 鈥淐hrist, our hope, lives鈥�.
