Sisters Marilyn Pray, Lorraine Julien and Donna Del Santo traveled to NYC to see the Pope. After catching a bus at 4am, traveling 8 hours and then a three hour wait to get into Madison Square Garden the travelers finally made it inside the venue.
As seen in the previous blog post titled "Sisters and Friends' Pilgrimage to NYC," they would wait a few more hours before seeing the Pope. Entertainment from singers like Gloria Estefan and Jennifer Hudson kept the crowd energized as they waited for the 6pm Mass to begin.
In this blog post, Sister Donna Del Santo captures the highlights. (All photos courtesy of Donna)
