Pope Francis has braved driving rain to preach to a crowd of up to one million people on Brazil's iconic Copacabana beach.
The pontiff (76) got another rapturous reception as he drove through excited crowds packing the Rio de Janeiro streets.
It was the showpiece event of the Pope's first overseas trip.
