Pubblichiamo di seguito il testo del Videomessaggio che il Santo Padre Leone XIV ha inviato in occasione dell’Ankawa Youth Meeting , che si svolge dall’ 8 all’11 luglio 2026 nell’Arcieparchia di Erbil, in Iraq:Dear young friends,
It is a pleasure for me to greet all of you who are participating in the Ankawa Youth Meeting in the Archeparchy of Erbil. You have come from different parts of Iraq to gather in an atmosphere of faith and communion, and I pray that it will be an opportunity for all of you to grow in friendship with Jesus and with one another. Youth is a time of life marked by a desire to do great things and to make a difference in the world. In this regard, I am glad to know that the theme chosen for your meeting this year is mission. The Church has a vital mission to serve the world by sharing the light of Christ (cf. Jn 8:12) and bringing men and women into communion with God. You share in this mission, and I look to you to help shape the Church — and the world — in the years to come. As I have said before, young people are not only the future of the Church, but also the present.
