Pope Benedict XVI, right, celebrates a Mass for the unveiling and adoration of the Cross in St. Peter's Basilica, at the Vatican, on Friday, March 21, 2008. The pontiff is set to take part in the Good Friday Way of the Cross procession (Via Crucis) at Rome's ancient Colosseum, where he will carry a lightweight cross for the last three stations. The evening Via Crucis procession at the ancient Colosseum amphitheater is a Roman tradition that draws a large crowd of faithful, including many of the pilgrims who flock to the Italian capital for Holy Week ceremonies before Easter Sunday.
