Miker, local news just gave out this travel link in pennsy... will show routes to events and ways to get around traffic(good luck with that). This link to PENNDOT http://www.papal511.com/ bottom of the page has a mobile app
Thanks! We will be on buses and staying in Jersey side( Gloucster City) and then these will bus us "someplace" in Philly. From there we walk!! . It's should be good. I'm sure not anything like what Padraig and a few others did at Lough Derg but maybe a little hardship to offer up for Papa! Peace.
Papal address at Independence Hall. Papa will use the exact Lecturn President Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg address on. I hope he stops at Old St Marys around the block. Its where the 3rd Continental Congress was held and Religious Liberty Declared. Mass was celebrated with President Washington and Congress in attendance.
ArchBishop Chaput moments ago said to Pope Francis, we would rename Philadelphia, Francisville if we could
I was going to post this earlier as I watched on TV live. couldn't describe in a few words , what spoke VOLUMES!!! but now its in print... Pope Francis Halts Motorcade to Bless Boy with Cerebral Palsy heres a link to NBC with a partial video. http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/po...ts-motorcade-bless-boy-cerebral-palsy-n434221
If anyone can find this video...Please post it. NBC just showed video of Pope Francis leaving NY going to Philly today up in the cock pit. Papa asked if they would fly by the Statue of Liberty and Elis Island...per NBC. You could clearly see Papa Francis in the cockpit behind the pilots talking to them...he cracks me up
Thanks Hope, its around the Nation I believe LOVE your Avatar ! I wonder if Cardinal Dolan had a triple scoop for Papa Francis, I know that look Papa has...
Im not gonna go into detail and go negative on this Great thread on Papa! Mayor Nutter of Philly just greatly abused this Catholic event... Papal passé spoke out on it as well.
According to EWTN, the Pope has sciatica. Very painful. Impressive strength and resolve from the 78 year old, offering his sufferings no doubt. And yet, he continues to smile. Wonderful.
Papa Francis speaking in front of the building where the US Constitution was ratified and the Bill of Rights. And speaking from the Lecturn that President Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg address
