They say that the Pope will arrive at 5:45 pm in
Villamor Air Base in the Philippines coming from Sri Lanka the government has
already deployed a very large group of police forces and traffic enforces along
the route that Pope Francis will be passing to ensure his safety when he is
here in the Philippines. Before Pope Francis’ arrival in the Philippines many
of his documentaries about his life is being aired on television for the
general public to know who Pope Francis is aside from being the current leader
of the Catholic Church. A lot of Pope Francis memorabilia or souvenirs are
being sold so the people could remember this historic event in the Philippines.
Pope Francis will be riding a white Philippine jeepney that is open which is
very dangerous for his life, he wants to do this because he wants to be with
the people to interact with them. He will have a Papal Convoy when he arrives
some of the roads will be closed due to his arrival.
The
Pope arrived at the Villamor Air Base and was welcomed by children, President
“Noynoy” Aquino, Vice President Jejomar Binay, members of the Cabinet, Bishops
and other Cardinals and, Cardinal Tagle, upon the arrival of the Pope church
bells all over manila rang. A low pressure area is threatening to rain over the
parade of Pope Francis but I’m sure God will not make it happen. He rode a
pick-up truck on his convey on the way to the Apostolic Nunciature where he
will sleep for the night. Upon seeing the people on the road Pope Francis had
an everlasting smile and always waved to the people eventhough he went directly
from airplane to the convoy maybe he didn’t experience jet-lag. The human barriers
worked like a charm the Pope was not harmed eventhough he was riding an open
vehicle.
The Filipinos call Pope
Francis as “Lolo Kiko”. He arrived at the Apostolic Nunciature after 30
minutes. Pope Francis’ skullcap flew when he stepped off the plane from Sri
Lanka and the funny thing was our President hesitated to kiss the Holy Father’s
hand which went viral across social media ofcourse. The whole event for this
day went peaceful and no harm was done what so ever. That is all he has done
for today! The arrival of Pope Francis made the Twitterverse explode with
tweets and hash tags containing Pope Francis and Philippines. (HOT @ THE PHILIPPINES).
