President Obama and Pope Francis are meeting at the Vatican.  Obama told the Pontiff it was a great honor to meet him. The Pope and the President were expected to focus on areas of agreement, rather than their big differences over Obama's support for abortion rights and same-sex marriage.

Meanwhile, American Catholics believe the man known as the Pope of the People is living up to his nickname.

A CBS News poll shows Catholics are feeling more connected to the church since Pope Francis began his papacy.
