Pope ends Sweden visit with mass for tiny Catholic community

Malmö (Sweden) (AFP) - Pope Francis wrapped up his visit to Sweden Tuesday after holding a public mass for the Catholic minority in the Lutheran but secular nation where same-sex marriage is allowed even for priests. The Argentine pontiff urged some 15,000 members of the country's Roman Catholic community -- many of them converts or migrants -- to seek the "path of unity" in comments at a stadium in the southern Swedish town of Malmo. "One very eloquent sign of this is that here in your country, marked as it is by the coexistence of quite different peoples, we are jointly commemorating the fifth centenary of the Reformation," Pope Francis said before heading back to Rome.
