Pope Francis made a visit to a favored nun, and the circus group she lives among, who regularly brings transgender groups to meet the Pontiff during his weekly audiences.
In a statement issued to the Vatican press corps July 31, news of the Pope’s visit to Sister Geneviève Jeanningros in the Roman coastal town of Ostia was announced:
Today, July 31, Pope Francis left the Vatican and arrived in Ostia at 3 p.m. to visit Sister Geneviève Jeanningros, Little Sister of Jesus, and the community of carnies and circus performers at the Luna Park in Ostia Lido.
The Holy Father blessed a statue of Our Lady Patroness of the Traveling Show and Circus and greeted the families and children present.
