Pope Francis announced Monday he will make
his first visit to Africa later this year with
stops in Uganda and the restive Central
African Republic.

“I think it will be towards the end
of the year because of the
weather,” the pontiff said aboard
the papal plane as he headed
back to Rome after a weeklong
visit in Asia, where he drew
record crowds.

“The trip has been a bit delayed
due to Ebola. It’s a great
responsibility,” he added.

The Argentinian pope, the first pontiff from
Latin America, also confirmed plans to travel
to Ecuador, Bolivia and Paraguay in July.
