The postulants and I went to Stockbridge and from there to Yankee Stadium to attend the Papal Mass on Sunday. It was a wonderful event. The Pope’s emphasis on true freedom echoed the words of Pope John Paul II at the last Papal Mass in the US which I attended–back at Camden Yards in 1995. At that time Pope John Paul II said, “Every generation of Americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.”
Videos of the Pope’s visit can still be viewed at the USCCB site. I don’t know how long they will continue to make them available.
