The Australian Embassy to the Holy See is hosting a series of events this week, highlighting the contributions of indigenous peoples. Reconciliation Week includes discussions on the first Aboriginal liturgy 50 years ago. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, sat down with the Australian Ambassador to the Holy See, Chiara Porro, to find out more. She explains how the Catholic Church is doing in Australia and how the country’s relations are with the Holy See. Porro tells us more about the reconciliation week. The aboriginal invited to reconciliation week was also invited to speak to Pope Francis. This is a topic that is also close to his heart. Porro fills us in on how that meeting went.
