Comment

When Jorge Mario Bergoglio was elected the 266th Pope of the Catholic Church, he chose the name Francis in honor of St. Francis of Assisi who was known for rebuilding the church, saving it from moraldecay and refocusing it on the poor. Since his ascension to the most holy of offices, Pope Francis has been embraced not only by Catholics but by everyone. His modesty and genuine affection for all- as well as his pragmatic approach to the Church's stance on today's issues - has made him immensely popular all over the world. On September 22, Pope Francis makes his first official visit to the U.S. His 6-day trip includes stops in Washington and New York, and ends on Sunday, September 27, with a Papal Mass at the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia.
