Pope Francis has ended a trip to South Sudan with an impassioned plea for peace and forgiveness in the war-torn country.
Francis made the appeal on Sunday as he presided over an open-air Mass attended by 100,000 people on the grounds of a mausoleum for South Sudan’s liberation hero John Garang in the capital Juba.
He urged worshippers – including the country’s president and his opponents – to reject the “blind fury of violence”.
