During the Angelus prayer, the pope recalled the difficulties Christians face when they decide to preach the Gospel abroad or as missionaries. 

POPE FRANCIS

'To be a missionary is not to go sightseeing, and Jesus warns his people: 'You will find persecutions.'�

The pope said that persecution is not a thing of the past, and that in many parts of the world, Christians are still being persecuted because of their faith.

POPE FRANCIS

'Let us pray for our brothers and sisters who are persecuted, and praise God because, despite this, they continue to bear witness to their faith with courage and fidelity.�

At the conclusion of the prayer, Pope Francis prayed for the more than 100 victims of China's natural disaster; a mudslide that buried a small down in the southwest of the country.
