Former street kids want Pope to visit during Philippines papal visit

Father Matthieu Dauchez, director of The Blessed Charles de Foucauld Home for Girls, poses with residents Jan. 13 in Manila, Philippines. Father Dauchez said there are between 6,000 to 10,000 street children in metro Manila.

MANILA, Philippines - Father Matthieu Dauchez knows the children he works with are not the only poor people in the Philippines, but that has not stopped him from lobbying loudly and praying constantly that Pope Francis will stop by.
