Bishop Tom Neylon, Lead Bishop for Asia for the Bishops' Conference, has recently returned from a week-long trip to Pakistan from 9-16 March.
He visited a number of projects funded by the Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need and met with the faithful, priests and bishops in the major cities of Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Lahore and Faisalabad.
The Catholic faithful experience various challenges in Pakistan but the practice rate is extraordinary - over 70% attend Mass.
On this Catholic News podcast, we interview Bishop Neylon about his experiences and encounters.
