Madrid, June 5 (EFE).- As Spain prepares for the Pope’s visit beginning Saturday, thousands of volunteers are helping organize the public events expected to draw hundreds of thousands of faithful.
Among them are young Latin Americans eager to contribute and hopeful of seeing the Pontiff in person, even if only from a distance.
«As soon as I heard about it, I got really excited and thought, ‘This is my chance,'» Edna Sofía Solano, a Honduran living in Spain, told EFE. Learning of the papal visit inspired her to get involved in any way she could.
Her greatest hope is to see the Pope, «even from afar.»
