Our apostolate is directed towards forming the people of God in an authentic Christian life, rooted in the life of the Church. We do this through catechesis in parishes and families, popular missions and ‘catechesis with art’, a journey in which beauty becomes a privileged way to encounter the Lord and rediscover the faith.
We accompany pilgrims and visitors in St Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums along itineraries of Art and Faith: journeys in which works of art are not merely admired, but read as a proclamation of the Gospel and a living witness to the history of salvation.
We also offer virtual visits, in which, through images and commentary on the works, we guide people in discovering sacred places and their message of faith. In this way those who are not in Rome, or who live abroad, can take part in ‘catechesis with art’ and let themselves be accompanied on a journey of beauty and faith.
We are also present in the Basilica of St John Lateran, the Pope’s Cathedral, Mother Church of Rome and of all the Churches of the world, where we continue to offer our service of welcome, catechesis and spiritual accompaniment to all who wish to come to know more closely the face of Christ and the mystery of the Church.
