A papal trip would not be complete without a meeting with people in need. In Indonesia, Pope Francis went to the headquarters of the country's Bishops' Conference to meet with people who receive assistance from the Catholic Church's charitable organizations.
For some, this visit was a reminder that they are part of the Chruch, even if they are far from Rome.
Holy Father, your compassion to us always gives us hope, and your presence here ensures we are never left behind.
Pope Francis spent more time greeting the sick than speaking, and his attentiveness visibly moved some people.
Images like this have been nonstop throughout the trip even though Christians only make up 3% of the population. The Indonesian people have welcomed the Argentine pope with open arms.
