WORLD DAY OF PEACE 2025
The Message of Pope Francis for the 58th World Day of Peace is on the theme ‘Forgive us our trespasses: grant us your peace’. For the World Day of Peace, which falls every 1 January, the Holy Father addresses a Message of good wishes and hope to Heads of State and Government, Heads of International Organizations, Leaders of different religions and every person of good will. Hope, which also characterizes the Jubilee Year, is the preponderant theme of this 58th Message. Pope Francis invites us to look at the many challenges that severely endanger the survival of humanity and Creation with a heart full of hope. To do this, it is necessary to rely on God's mercy. By His forgiving our debts, we will rediscover ourselves all children of the Father, and therefore all brothers and sisters, united on the path of peace.
