T- shirts – made their way through the streets of downtown Philadelphia, passed through the security perimeter and, despite the tens of thousands who had already poured into the area, somehow found a large patch of empty grass along the police barricades lining Benjamin Franklin Parkway.“It was ready for us,” said Ms. Chuquirima, 3. 7, a daycare worker and an Ecuadorean immigrant like her husband Amable Chuquirima, 4.

Francis was looking in the other direction as he drew abreast of the group but one of his security guards spotted Noah Gabriel and headed toward him.“As he got close, my legs started shaking,” Ms. God loves me.’ I feel like God touched me, he gave me his hand.” She was so overcome with emotion, she was unable to see what happened next: The security guard carried Noah Gabriel to the pope, who touched and kissed his head. The group from San Aloysius Church was ecstatic. Moments later, the baby was back in his mother’s arms.

The others were whipped, imprisoned in Santa Fe, and sentenced to be sold into slavery.
