History in the making: Pope Leo and King Charles pray together
King Charles and Pope Leo will have their first meeting this week at the Vatican.
But it will be much more than a meeting of two heads of state.
For the first time in 500 years, the leader of the Catholic church and the supreme governor of the Church of England, which broke away from Rome in the 1530s, will pray together publicly in the Sistine Chapel.
They’ll devote their prayers to their shared concerns about the environment, religious harmony and global peace.
GUEST:
Luke Coppen is UK editor of The Pillar, a website that covers the Catholic world
