Celebrating his first public Mass at the National Stadium in the Thai capital, Bangkok, the Pope speaks about what missionary discipleship consists in.

Pope Francis is in Thailand to celebrate the 350th anniversary of the establishment of the Apostolic Vicariate of Siam in 1669, that formally marked the beginning of the Church in the country.

The motto chosen for this Apostolic Visit is, “Christ’s Disciples, Missionary Disciples".

Speaking in his native Spanish, he urged Thailand’s Catholics to go out just like Jesus did and make of the least, the last and the lost their brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers, who are invited to the Lord’s table.   

Here are a few glimpses from the papal Mass.
