(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has paid a visit to All Saints
Anglican Church in the heart of Rome. This afternoon the Pope presided over an
evensong service with the bishop of the Anglican Diocese in Europe Robert
Innes.
Whilst at the Church the Holy Father also answered questions
from the congregation. Responding to one question the Holy Father said a visit
to South Sudan was being studied at the moment. He also said there was the
possiblity that he would be accompanied by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin
Welby.
The Pope also blessed a newly commissioned icon of Christ
the Saviour.
It’s the first time a pope has visited an Anglican church in
Rome and it comes as part of All Saints’ 200th anniversary celebrations.
Vatican Radio’s Philippa Hitchen followed events and spoke
to Lydia O'Kane from All Saints Church.
