They’ll be doing some training on Saturday ahead of the big day on Sunday with over half a million people due to turn up to see Pope Francis.
Eimear Lanigan has been telling KCLR that they expect to be stewarding, holding umbrellas over Eucharistic Ministers and other similar duties.
While Aoife Ward says she expects this will be a story that she be telling her grandkids in years to come – because her Grandmother is still telling her stories about John Paul the Second’s visit in 1979.
