Washington, DC – US Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed that he will meet Pope Francis at the Vatican. The news was confirmed by Pence’s office. The visit is expected to take place next week. Meanwhile, the issue of the meeting has not been revealed yet. It is worth noting that Pence’s visit is scheduled soon after Sam Brownback’s visit to the Vatican, the Ambassador of the American Commission for Religious Freedom.
Vice President Mike Pence is best known as the leader of the Christian faith in American history. He has spoken strongly against moral degradation, including same-sex marriage, abortion and euthanasia. In 2018, Michael D’Antonio and Peter Eisner wrote in The Shadow President: The Truth About Mike Pence that Pence was described as “the most successful Christian official in American history.”
