"Forward with Hope" with Pope Francis

"Forward with Hope", the slogan for Pope Francis's visit to Belgium, resonates as a call for renewal and optimism.

The Catholic Church in Belgium is a community actively in motion, at the service of the common good and engaged in a constructive dialogue with all segments of society.

The community of the faithful is going “Forward with Hope”, in a journey where trust and joy are central. In the Christian tradition, hope is a force that propels, comforts, and inspires us. Hope invites us all to strive for a better future, in which we can all be drivers of change and reconciliation.

The logo illustrates this journey against the backdrop of the map of Belgium. Pope Francis walks among the faithful (of all ages and all backgrounds) and encourages them to contribute to a fairer world and to take part in the life and future of the Church.
