- Pope baptizes Congolese converts.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-32213 POPE BAPTIZES CONGOLESE CONVERTS ROME -- Pope Paul VI baptizes a group of 12 Congolese converts, who later received their first Holy Communion and were Confirmed at the Basilica of St. Paul-Outside-the-Walls in Rome. The rites were held in connection with a memorial Mass for 130 Catholic missionaries killed in the Congo since that country’s independence in 1960. In a sermon the Pope condemned the “brutal violation” of basic human rights in recent violence in African nations. Christians have a duty, he said, to “stigmatize such crimes and bring them before the conscience of the world.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-3A-65-NAB)
