Pope Leo XIV began the second and final day of his visit to Paris on Saturday with a stop at Maison Bakhita, a support centre for migrants in the French capital.
Addressing young migrants at the centre, the pope said its work stands as testimony to the fact that it is possible to "live together in dignity and peace," framing the visit as a message about inclusion and solidarity.
The stop forms part of a four-day visit to France, during which the pope is scheduled to hold further public engagements, including a large open-air mass expected to draw more than half a million people in Paris.
The visit to Maison Bakhita underscores the emphasis placed on migration and social cohesion themes during the pope's time in France, alongside the other religious and ceremonial events planned for the trip.
