President Trump met Pope Francis at the Vatican. The president was accompanied by members of the Swiss Guards, which were established in 1506 and served as both ceremonial and security roles at the Vatican. During their meeting, the pope urged the president to be a peacemaker. Mr. Trump promised he would not forget the pontiff’s message.

The president presented the pope with a first-edition set of Martin Luther King Jr.'s writings, a piece of granite from Dr. King’s memorial’s “Stone of Hope” statue in Washington, D,C, and a bronze sculpture named, “Rising Above.” In return, Pope Francis gave Mr. Trump three of his own writings, documents on such topics as family, the joy of the gospel, and the environment. close
