Pope makes final appeal for peace at end of South Sudan trip

South Sudan’s leaders have been urged to act on Pope Francis’ plea for peace in the war-torn country.

The Pope made a “peace pilgrimage” to the country over the weekend with the heads of the churches in England and Scotland.

In his sermon on Sunday during a mass in the capital, Juba, the Pope urged the country to reject the “venom of hatred”.

Many South Sudanese are hoping their leaders will heed the advice.
