Pope Francis told the Legion of Christ religious order Saturday it still has a long road of reform ahead, making clear that 10 years of Vatican-mandated rehabilitation hadn't purged it of the toxic influences of its pedophile founder.

In a prepared speech, Francis told the Legion's new superiors a very vast field of work was needed to correct the Legion's problems and create a healthy order.

He encouraged them to work energetically in substance, and softly in the means."
