LIVE: Pope Francis Meets and Addresses the Local Diocese in Remote Papuan Town of Vanimo
Pope Francis flew deep into the jungle of the Southwestern Pacific island nation of Papua New Guinea on Sunday (September 8) to visit Catholics living in one of the most remote areas of the world and deliver medical supplies and other aid. Traveling 1,000 km (620 miles) in a C-130 cargo aircraft provided by the Royal Australian Air Force, Francis arrived with a small entourage in Vanimo, a township of some 12,000 people in the northwestern corner of PNG's main island, with no running water and scarce electricity. He came to Vanimo at the invitation of local missionaries with the Catholic Institute of the Incarnate Word. They, like Francis, the first pope from the Americas, are from Argentina.
