Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFrench President Francois Hollande calls Pope Francis to express his “chagrin” after two men attacked a Normandy church during Mass and slit the throat of the priest, killing him and seriously injuring a church-goer.
Hollande tells the pope that “when a priest is attacked, it is all of France that has been hurt,” according to a statement from the president’s office.
He assures the pope that everything will be done to protect the churches of France and other houses of worship.
