Thousands of Catholic youth congregate for the closing Holy Mass of Asian Youth Day.
Pope Francis makes his way on stage to share an important message:
(SOUNDBITE) (English) POPE FRANCIS SAYING:
"This is not good when I see people who sleep. No! Wake up! Go, Go, Go ahead."
He urges Asian youth to care for the poor and the broken-hearted.
And the crowd takes in every word.
POPE SHOUTING (in English): ASIAN YOUTH, WAKE UP!
Pope Francis has been urging Asian governments to embrace Christianity, and allowing faith to become an integral part of local cultures.
