Description: Pope Francis just concluded a 5-day trip to Africa, where he visited the Central African Republic, Kenya and Uganda. Despite concerns about instability in many of the areas he visited, the visit was a success. His visit to the Central African Republic was the first time in the modern era that a pope has set foot in an active conflict zone. We’ll talk about the visit with Matthew Bunson.
