Pope Francis will say a Mass
for migrants on Friday July 6, the fifth anniversary of his
visit to Lampedusa on July 8, 2013, the Vatican said Wednesday.
The Mass will start at 11:00 in St Peter's.
Vatican Spokesman Greg Burke said "it will be a moment of
prayer for the deceased, for the survivors and for those who
assist them.
"The presence of around 200 people, including refugees and
people taking care of them, is envisaged".
Admittance will be by ticket only, but the tickets will be
free, Burke said.
