Pope Francis will make a pastoral visit to Canada in 2022, focused on Indigenous Healing and Reconciliation. This will be the fourth papal journey to Canada and the first since Saint John Paul II’s visit in 2002. The pilgrimage will provide an opportunity for the Holy Father to address the impact of colonization and the Catholic Church’s role in the operation of residential schools in Canada. As shepherd of the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics, the Holy Father will also have an opportunity to connect with the Catholic community in Canada. Donations through this page will support the Papal Visit to Canada, separate from fundraising taking place locally to support the Indigenous Reconciliation Fund. Thank you for your generosity!
