Pope Francis Pope Francis attends Palm Sunday service

Pope Francis is currently in Papua New Guinea as part of his extensive tour of Southeast Asia. This marks the second leg of his journey, during which he will become the first Pope to visit the remote town of Vanimo in the northwestern tip of the country.

During his visit, Pope Francis is scheduled to meet with Catholic missionaries and charities that provide assistance to homeless children and individuals with disabilities in the region. This highlights the Pope's commitment to supporting vulnerable populations and promoting social justice.

One of the key themes of Pope Francis' visit is expected to be his call for stronger action to protect the environment. The Pope has been a vocal advocate for environmental conservation and has consistently urged world leaders to take decisive measures to address climate change and safeguard the planet for future generations.

By visiting Papua New Guinea and engaging with local communities and organizations, Pope Francis is demonstrating his solidarity with the people of the region and his dedication to promoting peace, compassion, and justice worldwide.
