zenit is an international, non-profit news agency staffed by a team of professionals and volunteers who are convinced that the extraordinary wisdom of the Pontiff and the Catholic Church can nourish hope, and assist all of humanity to find truth, justice and beauty.
Our objective is to transmit information with a maximum level of professionalism, fidelity and service to the truth.
Through the use of internet technologies, we aim to open a window to “the world seen from Rome.» With this aim, we translate and publish the Roman Pontiff’s words, messages, documents, speeches, and general audience addresses.
We report and offer commentary on what happens within the Roman Curia, pontifical universities, bishops’ conferences, sanctuaries, dioceses and parishes. We report on the major religious events of the world, informing about the themes, debates and events of interest to Christians, men and women of faith and non-believers of every continent.
zenit is an independent agency.
