Pope asks for prayers for his meeting with Russian Patrirach

(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has asked for prayers for his forthcoming meeting with his “dear brother”,  the Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, Head of the Russian Orthodox Church.

That meeting is scheduled to take place on Friday, February 12 at Cuba’s international airport as the Pope travels to Mexico for an apostolic journey.

The Pope’s appeal came at the end of his General Audience in St Peter’s Square. He also asked for prayers for his six-day journey which will take him from South to North of the Latin American Nation.
