Visiting Sisters

Yesterday, Pope Francis made a private visit to two convents of religious sisters in the Italian regions of Lazio and Abruzzo.

The Pope visited the Benedictine convent of the Sisters of the Reparation of the Holy Face in Carsoli, located in the L’Aquila province.

He also stopped by the monastery of Saint Filippa Mareri, located in Borgo San Pietro within the Rieti province, where he visited with the community of Franciscan sisters.

The Holy Father was accompanied by the bishop of Rieti, Domenico Pompili.
