Meeting with Pentecostal pastors

Yesterday afternoon, the Holy Father received in private audience a group of one hundred Pentecostal Evangelical pastors from various corners of the world who had expressed a desire to meet with him.

The group was led by Pastor Giovanni Traettino, whose community was visited by Pope Francis in Caserta in recent months.

The meeting took place in the Atrium outside the Paul VI Hall and was very cordial in nature, unfolding in a spirit of prayer and unity.

The Pope was accompanied by His Eminence, Kurt Cardinal Koch, President of the Pontifical Council for the Unity of Christians.
