The elder brother of the Pope has offered a rare glimpse into the family life and character of the first American Pontiff, describing a childhood shaped by daily prayer, strong discipline and a persistent sense of vocation that, he says, was visible from an early age.

His remarks come amid sustained global interest in the background of the Chicago-born Pontiff, whose election marked a historic milestone as the first pope from the United States.
