The Pope has given an exclusive interview to an Italian magazine run by the homeless.
In the interview, Pope Francis spoke about his decision to house Syrian refugees at the Vatican.
He said that other parishes in Rome have followed suit.
“Here in the Vatican there are two parishes, and both are housing Syrian families. Many parishes in Rome have also opened their doors and others, which don’t have a house for priests, have offered to pay rent for families in need, for a full year” he said.
The Pope also joked about some people’s attitudes towards giving money to people that beg.
