So a couple of times a month the Pope will bless different schools, organizations, communities, or visitors at this ceremony! They read a scripture in every language being represented and then the Pope blesses us in Latin. It was a very cool experience and we got to see the Pope up close! Craziness!
Below are some pictures from the event!

When some people were announced they would sing to the pope or wave shirts in the air!

on Thursday for our art class we went to Castel San Angelo and when our teacher wasn't feeling well she let out class early so we went inside and explored!
