Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Pope Francis
in Manila: Six million attend outdoor Mass
No match for any politicians. The last time in 1995, there were five
million, and this time six million, out of the total of 80 million Catholics,
or 80% of the entire population of the country, in the Philippines gathered to
pray with, see or come close to Pope in the capital city, Manila.
Don’t worry about businesses or schools. A national holiday had been declared in the capital for the
duration of the Pope’s visit.
Enjoy reading the article and seeing the photos of joy and eagerness of
the Filipinos.
