COLOMBO, Sri Lanka – Pope Francis arrived in Sri Lanka on Tuesday, January 13, on a visit set to focus on peace and reconciliation after a decades-long civil war on the island.

After landing at Colombo airport, the pope was greeted by Sri Lanka’s new president at the start of a two-day visit during which he will hold a public mass expected to draw one million people and canonize the island’s first saint. – Agence France-Presse/Rappler.com
