Pope Francis and the members of Bangabandhu’s family took photographs. Earlier, on his first full day of the visit to Bangladesh, the pope held an open-air Mass at the Suhrawardy Udyan. President Md Abdul Hamid received Pope Francis when the pontiff arrived in Bangladesh, where Catholics make up a tiny minority, on Thursday. Pope Francis will visit the graveyard there afterwards. Born as Jorge Mario Bergoglio in 1936 at Buenos Aires, Pope Francis ordained priesthood in 1969.
