The Vatican has confirmed that Pope Leo XIV’s visit to three countries in Latin America—Uruguay, Argentina and Peru—scheduled for Nov. 6-17 “will proceed according to the programme previously published.”
Pope Leo XIV’s will travel to Latin America as planned following a surgery for lung cancer, a highly awaited trip and the longest in his pontificate yet.
While Pope Leo had to cancel his scheduled event in Assisi today, October 27, to avoid flying just two weeks after lung surgery, his long journey to South America is set to begin at the end of next week, according to plan.
