At a February 16 press conference, the basilica’s archpriest, Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, OFM Conv, will present “several activities of a spiritual and cultural nature,” as well as “new services which will be made available to pilgrims and visitors,” according to the announcement.

The Pontifical Academy for Life is devoting its 2026 assembly to the theme of “Healthcare for all: Sustainability and Equity.”

Born in Croatia in 1989, Sister Krapić earned her law degree in 2015 and led the communications office of the Archdiocese of Rijeka. In 2023, she professed her vows as a Sister of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul and began to work in the Vatican’s Dicastery for Communication.

Sister Krapić will assume her new position on March 1. The director of the Holy See Press Office is Matteo Bruni; the office is part of the Dicastery for Communication. Reacting to the appointment, the dicastery’s prefect, Paolo Ruffini, praised Murray’s “dedication and professionalism” and Sister Krapić’s “great professional and human qualities.”

The parish priest said that he had consulted with Archbishop José Adolfo Larregain, OFM, and that the prelate had found no canonical impediment to wedding because they were of opposite sexes.
