Pope Francis to visit Irish shrine and hold a giant mass in Dublin today

Pope Francis will visit an Irish shrine and hold a giant mass in Dublin today. The Pope is due to speak in front of some 5 lakh people in Phoenix Park, as abuse victims and their supporters gather in a “Stand for Truth” rally in the city centre to demand justice.

Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar has urged the pope to take action against abuses and ensure justice for victims worldwide. The Pope said, inaction over these repellent crimes has rightly given rise to outrage, and remains a source of pain and shame for the Catholic community.
