Pope Francis holds 'brotherly encounter' with Jesuits in Indonesia

    Pope Francis has held his customary encounter with his brother Jesuits at the Apostolic Nunciature in Jakarta on the second day of his Apostolic Journey to Indonesia. Pope Francis met Wednesday with members of the Society of Jesus serving in Indonesia, as he continues his Apostolic Journey to the country. The encounter took place at the Apostolic Nunciature in Jakarta following his meeting with Indonesia's authorities, civil society, and diplomatic corps at the presidential palace. Among those present at the Nunciature was Cardinal Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja, SJ, the 89-year-old Archbishop Emeritus of Jakarta (1996-2010). As he usually does, the Pope spoke with the Jesuits privately for around an hour and answered several questions.
