The Pope has arrived in Madrid!!
We spent the morning listening to Sr. Marilyn sing and play guitar, a few witness talks and an unfortunately long talk by a bishop from Uganda. We then had Mass, where the bishop also said the homily........ :D
After Mass we grabbed lunch, then headed to the main piazza to await the Papal procession, and the Pope's arrival! Some of the group decided to stay up towards the street, at the end of the route (where it was sunny a lot longer) while the rest headed back to our spot from Tuesday afternoon and grabbed a place right against the fences. After several hours of waiting, the Pope finally came by in his popemobile, and then we headed back to watch his address on TV and grab some food.
We're taking a slow day tomorrow, because we need to get ready and excited for our adventure to the field on Saturday for the vigil!!
