The world prays for the Pope
Roman Catholics across the world, from blue-collar workers in Poland to monks in the Norwegian Arctic and parishioners in the Philippines, prayed for the Pope today amid fading hopes that he would recover.
In Wadowice, the southern Polish town where the Pope grew up, people abandoned school and work to pray in the town’s church after the health of the nation’s best-known son took a dramatic turn for the worse.
