The Pope was speaking to the crowd regarding evangilization, urging the parish community to develop an atmosphere where no one is “judged” in church.

Later in September, Pope Francis will embark on an 8-day tour of Cuba, the US, and the UN headquarters.

It is expected that he will receive a warm welcome from Castro on his 3-day visit to Cuba which begins on September 19.

President of Cuba Raul Castro has recognized that Francis played a crucial role in the country’s reconciliation with the United States this year.
