in Bologna and Florence, before arriving at the Vatican train station where
they will be received by Pope Francis himself, who will be awaiting them at
the station.
The objective of the initiative is to promote the direct experience of
artistic creation, bringing the littlest ones closer to visual communication
and the language of images, from which sprang the idea of a journey through
beauty. During the trip,
other educational and artistic programs dedicated to children will be offered
by the personnel of the Italian Railway System.

“I focused on the children,” said Cardinal Ravasi,
“because I think that therein lies the root from which we must build a
generation of young persons who still have ... the beauty of cre
tivity—that doesn't seem old at the
start—who aren't already discouraged the way we are but who are ready to
live more the future that awaits them. Basically, religions have precisely
this fundamental purpose: to teach how to come together, how to continuously
declare the future,
that is, hope.”
