VATICAN – “Hoping Together”. Pope Francis in Mongolia from 1 to 4 September
Vatican Media
Rome (Agenzia Fides) – “Hoping Together”, motto chosen to express the spirit and heart of the announced Apostolic Journey that Pope Francis will make to Mongolia from 1 to 4 September.
Today, the Holy See Press Office announced the detailed program of the Papal Visit, also publishing the logo of the Visit.
Releasing the motto of the apostolic journey – Hoping Together – the Holy See Press Office explained that it was chosen to emphasize “the double meaning of the Holy Father’s Apostolic Journey to Mongolia: that of a pastoral visit and of a state visit. “Hope”, a purely Christian virtue is one that is also widely shared in non-Christian circles. By associating it with the adverb ‘Together’, the motto “underscores the importance of bilateral cooperation between the Holy See and Mongolia”. ‘Hoping together’ represents “a common ideal and also an element that will characterize the journey: the presence of the Holy Father represents for this small portion of the People of God a sign of great hope and encouragement and on the other hand the Church that is in Mongolia, with its smallness and marginality, can offer a sign of hope for the universal Church”. The papal flight will depart from Rome/Fiumicino on the evening of August 31st to land in Ulaanbataar on Friday September 1st at 10 am local time.
All the Pope’s appointments and meetings during the trip will take place in the Mongolian capital. A welcome ceremony is scheduled for September 2nd at Sukhbataar Square, followed by a courtesy visit to the President of Mongolia Ukhnaagiin Khürelsükh at the State Palace and meetings with the authorities, of civil society and diplomatic corps. In the afternoon of the same day, a meeting with bishops, priests, missionaries, consecrated persons and pastoral workers in Saints Peter and Paul Cathedral is scheduled.
On Sunday, September 3, always in the capital Ulaan Baatar, an ecumenical and interreligious meeting is scheduled in the “Hun Theatre”, and holy Mass, which will be celebrated inside the “Steppe Arena”.
On Monday, September 4, final day of the visit, a meeting with charity workers and the inauguration of the House of Mercy are scheduled at 9.30, before the farewell ceremony at “Chinggis Khaan” International Airport.
The Press Office statement also elaborated on the logo that features a map of Mongolia outlined in the red and blue, the colours of the national flag (see photo). Within the borders is the shape of a ger (a traditional Mongolian dwelling), from which yellow smoke (the colour of the Vatican) flows upwards. To the right of the ger is a cross. The ger and the cross are contained between two vertical inscriptions, in traditional Mongolian language, which echo the motto (“Hoping Together”). (Agenzia Fides, 6/7/2023)
