The diocese of Teggiano-Policastro is a pilgrim of hope in the places that mark the culmination of the jubilee path wanted by Pope Francis: A path that takes on greater meaning now that she has returned to her father's house after a long suffering that saw him fragile and conform to Christ on the cross, but always among people to testify that man is not an island, each of us needs others. Monsignor Antonio De Luca in formulating wishes for Holy Easter had expressed words of comfort for those who are alone, who is in difficulty, For the many young people of his community forced to leave their land to look for employment away from home: Not an empty and superficial comfort, a joyful and aware exhortation that the confident acceptance of one's condition, The hope that their own fate is not entrusted to fate but are in the loving hands of God and that his will is impersoncrutable but loving for all his creatures. Moreover, Hope is seed of certainty, regardless of the time necessary for its realization.
Pullman and other means that conveyed to Roman places of Roman cults have been organized from the Vallo di Diano and Gulf area about two thousand five hundred pilgrims, of which a fifth young people, and the related parish priests who participated enthusiastic about all the phases of the Petrino jubilee journey: Holy Mass, Celebrated by Mons. De Luca in the Basilica of San Pietro, the holy door. The words of Mons. De Luca touched heart, The soul and brain of its people and many other faithful present in the Basilica at the time of the celebration: paid tribute to the successor of Pietro, Francis, Remembering that he revealed "The maternal side of the Church"; He specified that this was not a tourist trip but an event of faith that strengthened and changed them, as it should be in any context of conversion, Therefore the return to one's communities is made of a firmer faith. Clearly he did not fail to bring the desperate cry of his territory to the foot of the altar of the Pietrino for depopulation due to the lack of work: In the certainty that anyone is saved by itself and above all the only hope is to rise in the arms of Christ.
