Our colleague in Port Moresby, Claudia Torres, recalls the highlights of Pope Francis' third day in Papua New Guinea and his embrace of people on the peripheries.On Pope Francis’ second full day in Papua New Guinea, more than 20,000 local Catholics flocked to Sir John Guise Stadium, some arriving as early as 2 AM, to secure a spot at Sunday Mass with the Holy Father.
In his homily, the Pope reflected on the Gospel passage from Mark about Jesus healing a deaf man with a speech impediment. He reminded the faithful that, although they may feel far from God, they “are at the center of His heart.” In the afternoon, the Pope boarded an Australian military transport plane for the two-hour flight to the coastal city of Vanimo in the northwestern part of the country, where he spent a few hours with local Catholics.
After addressing the faithful, Pope Francis made a short visit to the nearby village of Baro to meet a group of Argentinian missionaries and religious sisters belonging to the Institute of the Incarnate Word .
