Polish Pope Gathers 650,000

Just a few kilometers from Levoca, Slovakia, a hillside church rests. It is the place of personal pilgrimages. Yet years ago Pope John arrived and with him crowds of followers. He shared mass for more than 150,000 people. The site is just as beautiful today, although much less crowded.
 People have been sharing their pilgrimage to this site since 1240. Amazingly, it is modestly well preserved.
