Filipino twin babies get forehead kisses from Pope Francis in Mongolia

Filipino twin babies were recently blessed by Pope Francis through a kiss on the forehead during his visit to Mongolia.

According to an Unang Balita Report on Tuesday, couple Dennis and Kristina Yray, along with their twin babies, were among more than 2,000 devotees who greeted Pope Francis during his recent five-day visit to the nation.

Due to the crowd, the couple were surprised when the Pope asked his marshals to borrow the twins for the special attention.

According to the couple, they consider this their biggest blessing yet.

Cotabato-born Dennis works as a refrigeration technician in Mongolia, while Kristina, from Bulacan, is a teacher. The twins were born in Mongolia.

Mongolia's Catholic community of 1,450 is one of the world's smallest. — Jiselle Anne C. Casucian/BM, GMA Integrated News
