Cuban president Raúl Castro will meet Pope Francis at the Vatican on Sunday. The Vatican has formally approved the canonisation of Blessed Junípero Serra four months after Francis announced he would declare the Spanish missionary a saint. Officials considered closing the @Pontifex Twitter account because of abusive responses, Archbishop Claudio Celli has said. George Weigel argues that "the inept Vatican press operation has proven incapable of disciplining" the pre-environment encyclical spin. Fr Ray Blake outlines his plan to open a "portal of mercy" in the centre of one of Britain's most secular cities. "New Agey feminist" Chelsea Clarkson explains how she ended up wearing a veil at an Extraordinary Form Mass. And 21-year-old Elliot Williams describes "the experience of a lifetime" in Pope Francis's presence in the Apostolic Palace. Follow me on Twitter @lukecoppen for updates throughout the day.
