ROME: Pope Francis will celebrate the UN’s first International Day of Human Fraternity on Feb. 4 with Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed.

ROME: It was 40 years ago, that Saint Pope John Paul II declared Saints Cyril and Methodius as co-patrons of Europe. With his Apostolic Letter
Egregiae virtutis, dated 31 December 1980, Pope John Paul marked the centenary of Pope Leo XIII’s encyclical that introduced their liturgical feast of 14 February into the calendar of the Catholic Church.

Cardinal Kurt Koch, the president of the Vatican Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, released a video message to mark 40 years of the declaration of the Apostles to the Slavs as co-patrons of Europe.
