Vatican City, Apr 4, 2011 / 15:47 pm
Pope Benedict XVI will call people of goodwill to join him in working for peace during a "day of reflection, dialogue and prayer for peace and justice in the world" to be held in Assisi on Oct. 27.
At the start of the year, the Pope announced his plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Pope John Paul's World Day of Prayer from Peace.
The Vatican announced April 2 that it will take place on the exact anniversary of the original event in 1986.
"Pilgrims of truth, pilgrims of peace" is the theme of the encounter to which the Vatican will invite people of good will of all major creeds and none at all to take part.
