Pope
gives impromptu greeting to crowds in Washington Mall
(Vatican
Radio) In improvised remarks made from the balcony of the American Congress to
huge crowds gathered in the National Mall in Washington, Pope Francis asked God
to bless all the people of America, especially the children and their families.
Speaking in his native Spanish, he asked the crowds to pray for him too, adding
that “if there are among you any who do not believe or cannot pray, I ask you
please to send good wishes my way”.
The
Pope's impromptu greeting came after his address inside Congress to a joint
meeting of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Before taking his leave
of the cheering crowds lining the Mall, the Pope said in English “Thank you
very much – and God bless America!”
