Thousands of pilgrims take part in Jubilee of the Sick and World of Healthcare event

Описание: The seventh great event of the Jubilee 2025, from Saturday 5 to Sunday 6 April, is dedicated to the sick and the world of healthcare.

Roughly 20,000 pilgrims, including patients, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, healthcare workers, and technicians went to Rome from over 90 countries around the world to participate in the event.

In addition to those coming from Italy, there are delegations from Cameroon, Canada Chile, Congo, Croatia, Ethiopia, France, Germany, Mexico, Peru, and the Philippines.

On Sunday the Jubilee of the Sick and the World of Healthcare will conclude with a mass in St. Peter’s Square presided over by the Pro-prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization, Archbishop Rino Fisichella.
