Sick child sings for the Pope in Mexico

People often ask why papal trips matter. The faces of the children at a hospital in Mexico who met Pope Francis on Sunday are a pretty good answer.

At Federico Gomez Pediatric Hospital in Mexico City, Pope Francis prayed, hugged and even doled out medicine to a little boy.

In the cancer ward, a young patient sang a beautiful a capella version of “Ave Maria” to the pontiff.

The Pope is in Mexico through Feb. 17, when he will celebrate Mass near the U.S. border in Juarez.
