Former President Joe Biden, Jill Biden to attend Pope Francis' funeral in Rome
.... Biden, a devout Catholic, had been scheduled to travel to Rome to meet with Francis during the final days of his presidency, but the trip was canceled amid devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. It would have been Biden's final overseas trip as president. ....
Biden met with Francis in 2024 while he was in Italy for the G7 summit. He also met the pontiff in 2021 when he was in Rome for the Group of 20, or G20, summit.
