Catholic Church In San Marino
The Catholic Church in San Marino is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the leadership of the Pope in Rome. History San Marino is a predominantly Catholic state — over 97% of the population profess the Catholic faith, but Catholicism is not an established religion. There is no episcopal see in San Marino. Historically, the various parishes in San Marino were divided between two Italian dioceses, mostly in the Diocese of Montefeltro, and partly in the Diocese of Rimini. In 1977, the border between Montefeltro and Rimini was readjusted so that all of San Marino fell within the diocese of Montefeltro. The bishop of Montefeltro-San Marino resides in Pennabilli, in Italy. Parishes There are several parishes in the Republic, including: * St. Andrew the Apostle Parish in Acquaviva. * St. Antimo and Marino Borgo Maggiore. * St. John the Baptist in Chiesanuova. * Mary Help of Christians in Customs. * St. Michael the Archangel in Domagnano. * St. Paul the Apostle in Faetano. * ...

Pope
The pope ( la, papa, from el, πάππας, translit=pappas, 'father'), also known as supreme pontiff ( or ), Roman pontiff () or sovereign pontiff, is the bishop of Rome (or historically the patriarch of Rome), head of the worldwide Catholic Church, and has also served as the head of state or sovereign of the Papal States and later the Vatican City State since the eighth century. From a Catholic viewpoint, the primacy of the bishop of Rome is largely derived from his role as the apostolic successor to Saint Peter, to whom primacy was conferred by Jesus, who gave Peter the Keys of Heaven and the powers of "binding and loosing", naming him as the "rock" upon which the Church would be built. The current pope is Francis, who was elected on 13 March 2013. While his office is called the papacy, the jurisdiction of the episcopal see is called the Holy See. It is the Holy See that is the sovereign entity by international law headquartered in the distinctively independent Vatic ...
