Pope Francis to deliver mass to 65,000 people in Edmonton during papal visit: Live updatesTuesday afternoon, Pope Francis will travel to Lac Ste. Anne, a holy site that attracts as many as 40,000 pilgrims each year Holy be his name 🙏 I find it bizarre that major news orgs around world = incapable of using correct terms re a religious service celebrated by 1 billion ppl around globe. FYI — no priest (or pope) “delivers” Mass. The correct terms = to “say Mass” or “offer Mass” or “celebrate Mass”. Thank you. people still believe in that medieval b.s.? pedophiles and child genocide how can we respect such a sick and twisted 'community'... add up what they 'believe' in... what complete criminal nonsense and they send their kids there?
