Pope in Mongolia: A small community’s preparations and aspirations

Pope Francis became the first pope to visit Mongolia when he landed at Chinggis Khaan International Airport in the national capital Ulaanbaatar on Friday. The #pope is on a four-day official visit to the Buddhist-majority nation of about 3.4 million with some 1,500 Catholics. The visit focuses on encounters with leaders of government and civil society and meetings with local #Catholics. The pope is scheduled to attend ecumenical and interreligious gathering, offer a public Mass and inaugurate a charity center. A former communist state, #Mongolia is landlocked between #Russia and #China. The country maintains close cultural, political, and military ties with Russia, and China is its largest economic partner. About 52 percent Mongolians follow #Buddhism, 3 percent are #Muslims, 2.5 percent #Shamanists and 1.3 percent #Christians. About 40 percent of people have no religious affiliations. But the pope's visit has transcended religious and national barriers, resonating deeply with people from all walks of life, and fostering interfaith connections that bridge diverse belief systems.

Mother Mary and lord Jesus christ keep pope in good health 🙏

[@billlee4736]

The Pope has traveled to many countries but this trip will be a special one for him especially the tiny catholic community in Mongolia since nobody could imagine one day he will be here with them!

[@IsabeloConsulta-oh8xq]

Few but true Roman Catholics they are, not bad.

[@jocelyncalibjo8464]

Even though Mongolia is a remote country the people are not foreign Catholics. They are our brothers and sisters in faith. It is a blessing that Pope Francis visits them. God bless Pope Francis. Jesus Christ have mercy on your people in Mongolia.

[@ericpoochie]

The Priest is Filipino, we proud of you as a Filipino, spreading the word of God greetings from Philippines ❤❤ 🇵🇭🇲🇳

28 Churches burnt in Pakistan and 300 houses of Christians were burnt but Pope Francis didn't take any action and didn't help Pakistani or Indian Christians

Estoy a favor de la Iglesia Católica y el papado. Pero este señor es nefasto. Traiciono a los católicos perseguidos en China por quedar bien con el partido comunista chino.

[@chantaldemanaus5111]

Francis isn’t a pope

[@filipobalbus6887]

These people do not know the Gospels

[@ferchocardona1917]

Wrong. They probably be more faithful and knowledgeable of The Sacred Escriture than many Catholics.

[@ianbertus9689]

God bless the Mongolian government and people

[@richardbenitez1282]

Pope Francis is deeply proud of those Catholics who work hard to keep their faith. And, Mongolia resides in the minds of most everyone in the world. I’m here in California. And of course I’m aware of an outline of Mongolia in my mind. Who can forget Mongolia’s spectacular horse riders. Plus, fabulous history. I would think Catholics around the world are totally happy pope Francis is in Mongolia. Just to let folks know , the Vatican does offset the finances of papal visits in poorer countries ( you know financially). This is a proud moment for Catholics all over Asia.

[@josephinepolette8481]

Richard you are being subtly vicious. Why even bring up financial matters into it, and about poorer countries, it is really an unnecessary statement. 💔😢 What's your issues, be man enough to speak up and don't be sacastic!? If you are afraid, then keep your silence and forever hold your peace! God bless, and protect our Pope Francis, all the people in Mongolia and all His created ones, and let there be peace, harmony and unity all over the world. In Jesus Christ Mighty Name above all names. Amen. Luke1vs26-38. John3vs16,17,... Hallelujah! Shalom and Amen.🙏 ❤️

[@carolpountney7627]

Thanks for the update. God is good…He alone through the Holy Spirit has instructed the Pope to visit Mongolia at this time. Yes, the Catholics in Mongolia are part of a very large family. Remoteness is no barrier to the reach of God’s Love for His children in Mongolia❤

[@clivedytor2069]

Pope Francis is going to the margins…isn’t that what the Lord told us to do?

[@divinebalubar9786]

May the Lord bless all the people of Mongolia especially those missionary priests, nuns and lay Catholics so that the Pope's visit may spark a deep faith in the hearts of the people and be part of the Catholic family soon. Greetings from the Philippines.

Never knew some Mongolian people are Catholic! Very nice to know this... Our Holy Pope would like to Bless and talk to these minority of Catholics in name of God the Father, the Son, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit and of Course God's Beloved Daughter, Holy Maria! May God Bless Our Holy Pope Franciscus and the Nation of Mongolia especially the Catholic Believers!!!!👍👍👍👍✨✨✨✨✨🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞😇😇😇😇👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊☺️☺️☺️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💜💜💜💜💜

[@vitoedison75]

It’s important to know and understand our faith correctly,, when we criticize Pope Francis, we do it with love and charity, but, if we truly love our Catholic faith, we denounce and criticize what’s not correct, no matter where it comes from,,, we need to be courageous and speak up,,,, there’s so much bad doctrine coming from the top

”Therefore, brothers, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught, either by an oral statement or by a letter of ours.” -2 Thessalonians 2:15 NAB ”Wherever the bishop shall appear, there, let the multitude of the people also be; even as wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the *Catholic Church.* “ (Letter to the Smyrnaeans, Chapter 8) -St. Ignatius of Antioch, 107 AD St. Ignatius of Antioch was a disciple of St. John the Apostle and was installed as the 3rd Catholic Bishop of Antioch by St. Peter the Apostle (most likely) after the 2nd Bishop Evodius died. Evodius was the person who coined the term “Christian.” Traditon says Ignatius was one of the children Jesus Blessed in scripture.
