Encouraging the lives of individuals in all areas of life is a hallmark of the Catholic Church.
Fr. Jinu Jacob, Vatican City
The Catholic Church is starting a series of conferences to honor the talents who have contributed to the world of sports and to listen to their life testimonies.
Encouraging the lives of individuals in all areas of life is a hallmark of the Catholic Church. The encyclicals of the Popes who traditionally lead the Catholic Church and other apostolic exhortations all reveal this truth. In this way, the Vatican Sports Center, the Office for Education and Culture, and the Office of the Press are joining hands with the Vatican Sports Center to make the sports sector more awake.
This initiative aims to bring the life stories of people who have contributed to the field of sports to everyone. The conference series is titled ‘When sport makes you nobler’.
In the Apostolic Constitution Predicatum Evangelium, the Pope mentions the field of sports a lot, entrusts the office for education and culture, and the office for the media. It is also worth mentioning that the international sports world remembers with gratitude the Pope’s great interest in the world of sports and the encouragement of the Catholic Church.
