On March 19, 2021, the Church celebrated five years since the publication of the apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia on the beauty and joy of love in the family. On the same day, Pope Francis launched the Year "Amoris Laetitia Family," which concluded on June 26, 2022, on the occasion of the X World Meeting of Families in Rome with the Holy Father.
Five years after the publication of the apostolic exhortation, the Dicastery for the Laity, Family and Life, in collaboration with the Dicastery for Communication, launched an initiative to accompany the Year of the Family: families from various parts of the world offer their video testimonies discussing the papal document.
