ORLANDO -- The Bishop of Orlando returned to Central Florida after his visit to Washington to be with the Pope.

Bishop Wenski said he admires the Pope for addressing so many difficult issues facing the Catholic Church, such as immigration and sexual abuse.

Wenski said he plans to continue with efforts to protect children here in the Catholic Diocese.

However, he admitted there are challenges.

"Even as the church has made great strides in providing a safe environment for children, we can see how much of a challenge this is in our society when children are vulnerable still because of the easy access that pornography can have in homes, in schools, etc," said Wenski.

The Bishop hopes to address the Pope's message at the Festival of Faith, which takes place on May 8 through May 10 at the Orange County Convention Center.
