In February 2016, Pope Francis made a pastoral visit to Mexico. The Knights of Columbus were there to welcome him outside the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City on February 13. During his six-day visit to the country, Pope Francis spoke of the family, plight of migrants, ending drug violence and the harsh treatment of indigenous people.
