This May 2025, Archbishop Christian Lépine of Montreal is currently in Rome, participating in the Jubilee of the Martyrs alongside a group of pilgrims. This spiritual journey, organized in collaboration with Aid to the Church in Need Canada and Spiritours, takes place from May 6 to 15. Coinciding unexpectedly—but providentially—with the beginning of the conclave, this pilgrimage becomes an even more meaningful and unforgettable experience.

As they commemorate the New Martyrs—Witnesses of the Faith—the group is immersed in a time of prayer, remembrance, and communion with the universal Church.

We invite you to keep Archbishop Lépine and all the pilgrims in your prayers, that this time of grace may deepen their faith and missionary spirit.
