LSD Ponferradina will live tomorrow, Wednesday, March 16, 2022, one of the most emotional moments of its almost 100 years of history. On that date, the members of the El Bierzo entity will participate in a audience with Pope Francis at the Vatican.
Several weeks ago, the Prefecture of the Pontifical Household transferred the details of this historic event to Ponferradina. For this reason, the blue and white expedition traveled today to Rome to participate in the General Audience of the Holy Father. Everyone will have the opportunity to share a meeting with the pope and to show him their gratitude for the deference he has shown to the entity in his Centenary.
The emotion felt by the Ponferradina to visit Pope Francis in the Vatican is great. It will be a historic moment and a memory that will leave an indelible mark on our Centenary.
The president of the club, José Fernández Nieto, ‘Silvano’, expresses “the emotion that Ponferradina feels for visiting Pope Francis in the Vatican. It will be a historic moment for Deportivo and a memory that will leave an indelible mark on the celebration of our centenary”.
Thanks
Fernandez Grandson thanks Pope Francis for the gesture he has had with SD Ponferradina, gratitude that he will express to you personally at the meeting to be held on March 16 from 9:15 a.m. in Vatican City. Likewise, the club wants to thank the Bishop of Astorga, Monsignor Jesús Fernández Gonzálezfor their help in making this unforgettable occasion possible.
While the papal audience arrives, the squad, coaching staff and directors walked around the city and enjoyed Rome to the fullest.
