Yesterday, the Holy Father concluded his visit to Cameroon. As is his custom, he delivered a farewell speech at Nsimalen International Airport in Yaoundé before boarding the plane for the journey to Angola.
The Holy Father is pictured here arriving at the airport in Luanda, Angola.
A few hours later, he arrived in Luanda (Angola) and shared warm greetings at the 4 de Fevereiro International Airport in that city. The Holy Father acknowledged his desire to visit all of Africa, but recognized that it has been necessary to restrict the itinerary to Yaoundé and to Luanda.
The remainder of the day yesterday was devoted to a meeting with civil authorities and members of the Diplomatic Corps of the country of Angola (which took place at the Presidential Palace) and to a meeting with the bishops of Angola and Säo Tomé (in the chapel of the Apostolic Nunciature in Luanda).
Today, the Holy Father was expected to celebrate Mass with the bishops, priests, religious people, ecclesial movements and catechists of Angola and São Tomé at São Paolo Church in Luanda, and then to attend a special meeting with youth at Dos Coqueiros Stadium in Luanda.
