Pope Francis reminds us all of what it is to be human in its most elevated ways
@phillydonna
I am proud & inspired to be a Catholic in Philly! Love Pope Francis
@a_monterog
It’s very thrilling to see our Latin American pope deliver his message in Spanish in Philly. So humble and human
@classicajays
While the Pope is in Philly, maybe he could kinda help out the Eagles?
@jcdibenedetto
Welcome to Philly and the USA, Pope Francis. Thank you for turning things around. You’ve restored hope it’s possible
@ryanfield
#PopeInPhilly and no crimes or murders reported all week or weekend. What novelty? Wish the Pope would move to Philly
@Mr_B_Marell
After researching how pure hearted the Pope is I wanted to go over to Philly and be part of history
@harrystymiest
I’m not catholic but his message transcends all of Christianity and all people of faith around the world
@jabel73
Hope people in philly treat the Pope nicer than Santa when they booed and threw snowballs at him at a football game #Pope #eaglesnation
@FredBrooklyn
While in Philly The Pope yelled up to Father Carmine’s window for a blessing
@SenToomey
Looking forward to seeing @Pontifex this afternoon at Independence Hall
@mikelauer10
Philly Jesus is riding down Walnut in a golf cart with a Pope Francis cutout attached. Probably not even the weirdest thing I’ll see today.
@designingchica
Pope Francis is using Lincoln’s lectern at Independence Hall and speaking en espanol. Pure awesomeness
@BishopSeitz
The Pope looked tired but he spoke of the joy we can offer to a world that so needs a word of Hope
@GretchenCole
#PopeinPhilly just used a geometry metaphor. My hero!
@chak1o2
If Pope Francis doesn’t run the steps in Philly like Rocky it’s a missed opportunity on his part
@MatMendezTV
The Pope is dropping religion, history and geometry during this speech in Philly. I should be paying tuition
@FlorenceOnochie
Pope’s speech at Indep. Hall where this country was founded on the basis that all are equal!! Great!
@BryanBenway
The big question regarding the @Pontifex visit to Philly is will he eat a cheese steak? If so, which restaurant?
@fm310
The country really needed the Pope here. Maybe we can take his words and start treating one another as human beings again
