Pop Francis is the 266th and current Pope of the Catholic Church. He has been elected Bishop of Rome and absolute Sovereign of the Vatican City State.
According to sources, on this Charismas Day, Pope Francis did not deliver a common quote from the Holy Bible but said, "To God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favors".
This quote was proclaimed by the heavenly host on the day when the Christ was born, according to the Vatican translation.
The saint said this in front of thousands of people who were gathered in front of the Vatican on Wednesday.
He also said that peace should play a vital role in Syria, South Sudan, the Central African Republic and the Holy Land.
Francis said in his Christmas Urbi et Orbi message that real peace is not just a balance of two opposing forces but it is a lovely frontage, which is able to conceal all the conflicts as well as divisions.
As the name indicates the Urbi et Orbi address is normally political and global. It is actually Latin which means 'to the city (of Rome) and to the world.
It has been revealed by some reliable sources that about 150,000 attended the blessing in St. Peter's Square.
