Official prayer/logo released for World Meeting of Families, Philadelphia, 2015

R RLast Updated: July 10th, 2020Church News

(CNA/EWTN News).- The official prayer and image for the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia next year have been released to aid pilgrims in spiritual preparation for the upcoming event.
