PHILADELPHIA >> The spirit on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway was infectious.
People hugged and greeted each other, talked happily and cheered with zeal when Pope Francis arrived in his Popemobile to celebrate Mass on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway on Sunday afternoon.
Celebrating the Catholic faith with pilgrims from all over the world and meeting people from diverse backgrounds has been a highlight for many of those who participated in the World Meeting of Families and the Papal Festivities, especially the nearly 10,000 of volunteers.
