Pope Francis celebrates 11 years since he was elected Pope. Pope Francis has held historic meetings with leaders of other religions, such as Islam and Judaism.

He has implemented a series of reforms in the Roman curia to improve transparency and efficiency. The Year of Mercy was proclaimed by Pope Francis and took place from December 8, 2015 to November 20, 2016. It was a special celebration in the Catholic Church that emphasized the concept of divine mercy and the need to practice it in daily life. It is impressive to see an 87-year-old person who faces an exhausting schedule every day.
