FEBRUARY 25, 2013

 

Good Morning.

 

We received some news a few weeks ago that we can share with you today. As announced by the Vatican early this morning, Philadelphia has been confirmed by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, as the host city for the Eighth World Meeting of Families. The official dates set for this gathering are September 22 – September 27, 2015. This marks the first time an American city has hosted the World Meeting of Families and we\’re deeply grateful that the Archdiocese of Philadelphia has been selected for this honor.
