Pope Francis waves from the popemobile with volunteers of World Youth Day (WYD) in Alges, 10 kilometers from Lisbon, on August 6, 2023. Pope Francis celebrated an open-air mass before a huge crowd at a waterside park near Lisbon to wrap up the WYD, the largest Catholic gathering in the world, created in 1986 by John Paul II. Around 1.5 million people attended the service at the Parque Tejo park on the eastern outskirts of the Portuguese capital, the Vatican said. Photo: AFP
