Papal Notes - DRC bends the knee

 ...and all the world wondered after the beast. Revelation 13:13

"Pope Francis has celebrated one of his biggest Masses, with around a million attendees in Democratic Republic of Congo's capital, estimates say. 

 

Huge crowds started to gather in Kinshasa well before dawn, including scores of schoolgirls dressed

in white who danced along the Pope's route.

 

A public holiday was declared, so as many people as possible could attend.

 

.... the Pope met President Félix Tshisekedi and delivered a speech condemning historical exploitation of Africa's resources, which he described as "economic colonialism."
