\n'More than 750 priests will concelebrate the Mass with Pope Francis. In fact, many Cardinals and Bishops will travel to Rome, specifically to take part in this celebration.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
But this won't be your typical celebration, rather it will be a so called 'Creole Mass.' The style combines indigenous instruments and rhythms with prayers in Spanish.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One of the singers, will be Argentinian Patricia Sosa.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n'I still feel like I'm dreaming. I get nervous and anxious and then I just tell myself to relax, even though I still can't believe I'm here.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe has long been recognized as a uniting force throughout the Americas. In fact the Mass will televised live by different Spanish language television outlets. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\n'The Mass will be highly symbolic. Our Lady is the Mother of the Americas and she brings a message of peace. The fact that we will be singing in Spanish along with an Argentinian Pope is incredible. We couldn't ask for more.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n
The last time a Creole Mass was celebrated in the Vatican, was roughly three years ago, under the Pontificate of Benedict XVI.\u00a0<\/p>\n
