Overview
- The Regional Government of Lambayeque and the Diocese of Chiclayo are running a citywide program that brings twelve revered images to the cathedral and culminates in a solemn Mass led by Bishop Edinson Farfán Córdova with four visiting bishops.
- Trujillo opened an interpretive room honoring León XIV, Piura advanced its tourism circuit called the Ruta del León, and TVPerú scheduled a live special from the Cathedral of Lima to link events across the country.
- Artisans from Monsefú prepared decorated breads and fine embroidery for displays at the Chiclayo cathedral, turning local crafts into devotional tributes.
- An exhibition in Chiclayo features a skullcap known as a solideo that former secretary Jasson Sempertegui says the pope gifted and signed in Latin, with the signature on the underside not visible to viewers.
- The focus on Chiclayo and Chulucanas reflects Robert Prevost’s years of ministry in northern Peru, which local leaders now translate into faith events, museum-style spaces, and tour routes that preserve his ties to the region.
