SAN ANGELO, TEXAS - In a few weeks Bishop Michael Pfeifer of the San Angelo Diocese will head to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to meet Pope Francis and celebrate World Youth Day, July 23, with millions.
“I’m looking forward to seeing him for the first time as pope,” Pfeifer said. “The other great excitement is you see youth there from all over the world. The one in Spain drew youth from about 180 countries in the world.”
Pfeifer said they’re projecting this year’s event may be the biggest one ever with more than three million people expected to attend.
