From 15 to 20 July 2024, Turin hosted the XIII International Gathering of the Teams of Our Lady (END), a lay and Catholic movement of marital spirituality.
With over 7,600 participants from 86 countries, the event transformed the city into a global meeting point for married couples and spiritual assistants, eager to strengthen their journey of faith and fully experience the sacrament of marriage.
Monsignor Roberto Repole, Archbishop of Turin, highlighted the importance of Christian life for couples, describing marriage as a journey of faith that unites people not only with each other, but also with God.
The gathering created a strong connection with the city of Turin, known for guarding the Holy Shroud.
We actively participated as Sindone Shop in the event with several dedicated spaces at the Inalpi Arena in Turin, which hosted it for its entire duration.
Our religious items have received special attention; among all, the reproductions on fabric, the rosaries, the cards and the medals, all linked to the devotion to the Holy Shroud and the Holy Face.
Numerous pilgrims also visited the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, once again demonstrating great interest in our exclusive replicas depicting the Holy Shroud.
It was a unique opportunity for us to meet and bear witness, which confirmed to us how devotion to the Shroud continues to profoundly touch the hearts of the faithful throughout the world.
We are grateful for having been able to share our passion and our work with thousands of pilgrims: an experience of faith, beauty and communion that we will carry in our hearts.
An event that enriched us spiritually and strengthened us in our mission: to guard and spread the signs of faith, through the concrete testimony of the Holy Shroud.
