The Pope’s visit to the United States has unsurprisingly been the most talked about event this past week and lots of people have been feeling extra #blessed about it. He started his visit in D.C., made his way to our beloved NYC, and is now making his final stop in Philadelphia. While in New York, he held evening prayer at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Mass at Madison Square Garden, had a procession on 5th Ave and one through Central Park, addressed the United Nations, and had a multi-religious service at the 9/11 Memorial. Knowing this would most likely be the Pope’s only time in the States, many people tried to get tickets to see him and from the following picture, you can tell that many people did! This was taken at the Central Park Procession before the mass at Madison Square Garden.
