Millions Attend Pope Leo XIV's Madrid Events

Pope Leo XIV’s visit to Spain has already attracted significantly large crowds

In Madrid, the pope held a public Mass and Corpus Christi Procession while holding a massive Youth Vigil on Saturday night.

The Mass is estimated to have had as many as 1.5 million in attendance while the Youth Vigil had 500,000 young people.

The choice of Spain and the choice of Corpus Christi Sunday are signs that this papacy is serious about reigniting Europe’s Catholic soul, with a visit to France coming in September that will include Lourdes and Paris.
