It is really a good news that after our prime minister of India Narendra Modi invited Pope Francis to India, the Pope had planned to visit India in 2024. When Pope Francis and PM of India meet together in Italy, Pope said that Modi has given me a gift by inviting me to India. The exposition of scared of relics of St Francis Xavier, our Goencho Saib is also open to public on November 21, 2024. Pope Francis would want to protect the interests of the Christian faith in India and Prime Minister Modi would like to assure Pope Francis that the Christian faith is not in danger in India because India is a secular nation. Pope John Paul II visited Goa in the year 1986 where the Pope celebrated public mass at Campal ground in Panjim. I appeal to the chief minister of Goa to see that the visit of Pope Francis includes Goa. Let us all give Pope Francis a warm welcome and be blessed.
