Rabat (Fides Service) - An ad limina visit is first of all a "pilgrimage to the sources of the Church," but also "a time for official meetings with representatives of the Curia offices" to discuss the situation of the Church in Morocco. In his editorial in the diocese monthly Ensemble, Archbishop Vincent Landel speaks of his sentiments as he prepares for his first ad limina (17-23 February) when he will be in Rome to the pray at the tombs of Saint Peter and Saint Paul and to have a private meeting with the Pope: "I want to let the Holy Father know that our Church is full of life and that we are not discouraged by difficulties. We know we are a pilgrim Church and we let ourselves be converted, turn our hearts to the Lord, through the events of daily life. We are a Church with many languages and many cultures and we build unity around Jesus Christ…I wish to bear witness to the Pope that this communion continues to grow".
