Papal memories

May 1, 2011 was a major event in the Catholic Church as Pope Benedict XVI beatified his predecessor Pope John Paul II. And as the world watches the beatification rites, Filipinos kept on reminiscing the times the late pope came to the country as head of the church- first in 1981, then in 1995. Filipinos also took photos of the Pope Mobile used in 1995, and touch several pope memorabilia, which are now called relics.
