Pope Francis presided over a
Mass attended by around 135,000 people in Abu Dhabi's Zayed
Sports City complex on Tuesday before heading back to Rome after
a historic three-day visit to the United Arab Emirates.
"I ask for you the grace to preserve peace, unity, to take
care of each other, with that beautiful fraternity in which
there are no first or second class Christians," the pope said.
During the visit Francis became the first pontiff to visit
the Arabian peninsular.
After a brief ceremony at Abu Dhabi, the pope took a
seven-hour flight to Rome.
