Pope Leo XIV to visit France
Pope Leo XIV arrived in France on September 25 to begin a four-day apostolic journey through Paris, Lourdes, and Metz. This visit marks the pope's fifth international trip. During his first day in Paris, the pope scheduled meetings with government authorities, civil society representatives, and the diplomatic corps at the Élysée Palace. His itinerary for the day also includes a visit to UNESCO and a prayer vigil with young French people at the Stade de France. The French state is covering costs related to republican security and heads of state, while the Church in France is managing the organization of pastoral events through donations from the faithful. The pope's visit concludes on September 28.
