Pope Francis received the credentials of the new ambassador of Peru to the Holy See,  Maria Elvira Velasques. They spoke for a few minutes.

But the great star of the audience, without a doubt, was the diplomat's 89-year-old mother. Pope Francis was surprised she could travel at her age.

'Her daughter makes her travel all over the world.�

'Forgive me, but I am so emotional I can't speak.�

After the traditional exchange of gifts, Pope Francis made a familiar request.

'Pray for me.�

The mother was left speechless, but Ambassador Velasques spoke for her.

'My mother always prays for you.â?
