The "ad limina apostolorum" visit of the Sardinian church to Rome began this morning with the meeting between the bishops of the island and Pope Francis .
After this morning's meeting with the Pontiff, starting tomorrow there will be a series of celebrations in the main basilicas of the capital : St. Peter's, St. Paul Outside the Walls, St. Mary Major and St. John Lateran. On Wednesday the Bishops will participate in the Pope's general audience, together with the Sardinians residing in the capital and the seminarians and educators of the regional seminary.
The visit is an opportunity to illustrate the particularities that distinguish Sardinia from a religious, social and cultural point of view.
