Pope greeted at Gethsemane with cheers
As bells peal, Pope Francis arrives at the Church of Gethsemane for a homily with priests and Catholic seminarians.
He enters the church to massive applause, ululating and fanfare as penitents reach out to touch the pope.
The event is running some 15 minutes late, and many of the people have been waiting for several hours for the pope to arrive.
