The Pope has said he could have ended up in jail if his life had been different in a new book-length interview with Andrea Tornielli (extract). More than a million pilgrims took part in the annual procession of the Black Nazarene in Manila on Saturday. A German investigator has said that more than 200 members of the Regensburger Domspatzen choir were abused over four decades. An Italian nun who has served leprosy sufferers for more than 40 years faces deportation from India after a change in visa rules. Pope Francis has invited 5,000 migrants to join him at Mass in St Peter's Basilica on January 17. And drones have captured stunning images of the Basilica of St Ignatius of Loyola (video).
