On Good Friday, Pope hears harrowing stories of human trafficking - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Francis, marking his seventh Easter season as Roman Catholic leader, presided at a traditional Via Crucis service at Rome’s Colosseum, attended by thousands of people holding candles.

At the end of the service, Francis read a prayer in which he spoke of the poor, the hungry, the elderly, abused children and the environment. Francis has made defence of migrants a key feature of his pontificate and has clashed over the immigration with politicians such as US President Donald Trump and Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini who leads the anti-immigrant League party and has closed Italy’s ports to rescue ships operated by charities.

Francis listened intently as three speakers read Bonetti’s meditations about migrants being set on fire, dying in the desert or drowning at sea and ending up in nameless coffins.

Pfffff please..what they do about their priests who rape (d) young boys.🤔🤔
