Pope Leo XIV’s Prayer Vigil for Peace

Pope Leo XIV’s Prayer Vigil for Peace on Saturday, April 11, will be guided by meditations from early Church Fathers, including St. Augustine of Hippo, and will see faithful from different continents light candles with the fire from the Lamp of Peace from Assisi.

“Let us make heard the cry for peace that springs from our hearts! For this reason, I invite everyone to join me in a prayer vigil for peace, which we will celebrate here in St. Peter’s Basilica next Saturday, April 11.”

“I urge that this period of delicate diplomatic work be accompanied by prayer.”
