Pope Makes Pilgrimage Of Peace To The United Nations In New York City
History is made this day. The eyes of a troubled world are turned to New York City and the United Nations as a pilgrim seeking peace arrives at Kennedy airport. It is a journey without precedent. Pope Paul VI, of course, is the first Pontiff ever to set foot on the soil of the United States.
Here is a camera record of the epic journey beginning with the landing of the Pope's plane at Kennedy Airport. His 24-mile motorcade terminates at Saint Patrick's Cathedral where he offers prayers of thanksgiving for a safe journey. President Lyndon B. Johnson traveled from Washington to meet with the Pope for 45 minutes. Both expressed deep satisfaction with the meeting.
There is little rest for the Pope on his crowded schedule. At the United Nations the Spiritual Leader of 600 million Roman Catholics is greeted by Buddhist Secretary-General U Thant. The Pope addresses the UN in fluent French, pleading that the United Nations offers the peoples of the World a last hope of peace.
Later, he offers Mass before 90,000 people in Yankee Stadium and here he receives an ovation from Catholic, Jew and Protestant. Pope Paul concludes his journey with a visit to Michelangelo's 'Pieta' at the Vatican Pavilion at the World's Fair.
So, it's Hail and Farewell Pope Paul VI. The world hopes that Divine Wisdom will look upon his mission with favor.
