TOPSHOT-US-PRAYER-POPE

TOPSHOT - Leticia Gonzalez is comforted by her son Moses, 9, at a special mass for Pope John Paul II given by Cardinal Roger Mahoney at Our Lady of the Angels Cathedral, 01 April 2005, in Los Angeles. The Pope moved closer to death late Friday in his long battle against crippling infirmity as the Vatican announced his health had worsened and prepared Catholics the world over for his demise. "This evening, or tonight, Christ is opening the door to the pope," said Monsignor Angelo Comastri, vicar general for the Vatican City, as he led some 30,000 pilgrims on a prayer vigil in St Peter's Square.
