Johannes Paul IIs onsdagsaudienser

Paven holder vanligvis hver onsdag en kort katekese på ulike språk, som oftest på selve Petersplassen eller i Vatikanets store audienssal. Alle som ønsker det, kan bestille gratis inngangskort og være tilstede ved disse audiensene. Paven tar vanligvis for seg ett tema under lengre tid, slik at emnet til sammen blir grundig behandlet. På slutten av audiensen hilser Paven de ulike gruppene som er til stede, og kommer med enkelte bemerkninger knyttet til aktuelle forhold.

Man behøver inngangskort til disse (og andre) arrangementene.

Denne listen er ikke fullstendig. På Vatikanets hjemmesider finnes forkortede utgaver fra og med 1997.
