Pope Francis was greeted by members of the clergy, representatives of Government and the local County Council as he left the plane and walked down a red carpet laid out for him. Pope Francis will meet a number of abuse victims in a private meeting. Pope Francis is ostensibly in Ireland to attend the World Meeting of Families (WMOF) - a major global church event focused on promoting family values. The selection of themes and artists featured in the event reflect many of the priorities in the ministry of Pope Francis.
