During the battle against the calamity, he was not physically there but they knew that the Pope was sending out his prayers for the people of the Philippines.

“Most holy father, I would never have imagined I would be able to say these words, in this very place, in front of your Holiness, and in the presence of many pilgrims: We are on Yolanda ground zero. In this very place, where we are standing, on that fateful day of November 8, 2013… In the midst of the pain and suffering, it was our Christian faith that helped us through,”

“Your holiness, you have come to us with a father’s compassion and loving concern and thus have brought us to God, the father of all. You have come to us as a shepherd of the Lord’s flock and thus have brought us closer to the good shepherd himself.”
