During his New York visit, Pope Franics prayed with the families of the September 11 attacks and stated, as transcribed by CNN, ""This place of death became a place of life, too, a place of saved lives, a hymn to the triumph of life over the prophets of destruction and death, to goodness over evil, to reconciliation and unity over hatred and division."
