Pope Francis is drawing attention to the charitable side of the Catholic Church by visiting a once- troubled and crime-plagued neighborhood in Portugal's capital. Francis reminded charity workers at a community center on Friday that they must protect the poorest and most vulnerable people with concrete gestures that “get your hands dirty.” The visit marked the midway point in Francis’ five-day visit to Portugal for the big Catholic festival known as World Youth Day. The pope will preside over a traditional Way of the Cross procession recreating Christ’s crucifixion later Friday.
