STORYLINE
Mozambique readies itself as Pope Francis heads this week to the southern African nation as well as Madagascar and Mauritius.
The Pope is visiting some of the world's poorest countries in a region hard hit by some of his biggest concerns: conflict, corruption and climate change.
On the first leg of the trip, Francis is expected to encourage Mozambique's peace process, which took a major step forward in August when the ruling Frelimo Party and the armed opposition Renamo signed a new peace agreement.
Mozambicans wait in expectation for Pope Francis's visit as they hope it can bring added strength and encouragement to the recent deal.
Maria Jonasse, 46, came from Tete province – roughly 1500 km from Maputo, just to have a chance to see the Pope and express her hopes. "It's about reconciliation, peace, hope, for us as Mozambicans we hope this unity is consolidated."
Muslim leaders are also joining the welcoming choir.
The Pope will have a meeting with officials which includes Sheikh Saide Habibe from a local mosque and part of the state council, a special government advisory board.
Francis will also have an inter-religious gathering with young Mozambicans at a central pavilion on the second day of the trip.
Habibe told AP the meeting will have "almost all religions" present in harmony, mirroring the "Mozambican people's tradition".
In 1992, the Rome-based Catholic charity Sant'Egidio Community helped broker the first peace deal to end Mozambique's 15-year civil war, which had killed an estimated one million people and devastated the former Portuguese colony.
The permanent cease-fire signed August 1 was the culmination of years of negotiations to end fighting that has flared sporadically in the 27 years since.
Communications professor Ismael Mussa said Mozambique had "a long history of peaceful experience of coexistence between all religions."
In a videotaped message released on the eve of the trip, Francis recalled that when former pope John Paul II visited Mozambique in 1988, he emphatically called for peace to end the war that was still raging.
Francis said he wanted his own visit to consolidate Mozambique's process of reconciliation.
Francis will also reach out to Mozambicans affected by back-to-back cyclones that ripped into the country earlier this year, leaving more than 650 people dead and destroying vast swaths of crops on the eve of harvest.
More than 1.3 million people are said to require food aid in one of the world's least developed countries, where even before the cyclones hit, 40% of children were stunted from malnutrition.
The unprecedented storms laid bare the impact of climate change on countries like Mozambique, which with its 2,400-kilometer (1,500-mile) coastline is one of the world's most vulnerable to the rising sea levels, warming waters and unpredictable storms blamed on global warming.
More so than any pope before him, Francis has made environmental concerns a pillar of his papacy, linking global warming to the persistent exploitation of the world's poor by the wealthy.
Environmental concerns are also expected to be on Francis' agenda when he travels to the Indian Ocean island nation of Madagascar, home to ecosystems and wildlife that exist nowhere else on Earth.
Deforestation is threatening vital habitats, with farmers slashing and burning forest land to find fertile soil in a country beset by cycles of cyclone and drought.
In addition, Francis is likely to call for more responsible, transparent government in both Mozambique and Madagascar.
Both countries rank among the world's poorest and Transparency International lists them among the most corrupt.
On Madagascar alone, 75% of the population lives on less than $2 a day.
The September 4-10 trip is Francis' second pilgrimage to sub-Saharan Africa, which the Catholic Church is looking to as its future given that Africa is one of the few places on Earth where Catholic communities and priestly vocations are growing.
