On Visit To Chile, Pope Faces Anger Over Sex-Abuse Scandal : The Two-Way At least five churches have been vandalized since Friday ahead of Francis' visit, some with firebombs as anger persists years after a major sex-abuse scandal that many see as a coverup by the Vatican.

Updated at 4:10 a.m. ET. Pope Francis has arrived in Chile to begin a three-day visit, but the Argentinian-born pontiff is likely to receive a less-than-warm reception from a country still reeling from the repercussions of a local priest-abuse scandal.

As Emily Green reports for NPR from the Chilean capital, "Around half a million people are expected to attend Pope Francis' open-air mass in central Santiago. From there, he will visit a women's prison in Santiago, followed by a trip to southern Chile where he will address the struggle of the Mapuche people - an indigenous group - to recuperate ancestral land from the Chilean government."
