PAPAL VISIT: Pope Francis is making his way to Knock Shrine this morning




Pope Francis had an incredible day yesterday in Dublin. The Pontiff’s visit is a packed 36-hour-tour with a stop off this morning in Knock Shrine, Co. Mayo.

The Pope will fly over to the Shrine where Our Lady appeared in 1879.

It’s understood that the public wishing to greet Pope Francis will have to walk a number of kilometres to get to the small town.

The Pontiff will then fly back to Dublin where he’ll celebrate Mass in front of up to 600,000 people (health and safety limited the number to this).
