A Whirlwind Papal Journey Concludes
- The crowded agenda of the Pope’s first visit to the United States ended in Philadelphia, where he met with victims of sexual abuse, spoke to inmates and celebrated a Mass in the heart of the city.
- Sunday culminated a six-day, three-city tour, where, in his public appearances, he continued to call for unity and underscore the importance of family.
- While hundreds of thousands of people were moved by the opportunity to pray with the pope, he left America with a blessing and his signature request: “Pray for me.”
