Pope Benedict XVI has defended immigrants’ rights and given speeches in Spanish, but His Holiness may have missed his best chance to fully embrace New York’s large Hispanic Catholic community by not visiting one of New York’s many Spanish congregations, some Hispanic Catholics said Sunday.
He should have visited a parish like St. Rose of Lima in Washington Heights, instead of St. Joseph’s Church in Yorkville, a parish that has a German mass, but has very few German parishioners anymore, said Maria Alba.
“Right now it’s like we are on the outside,” said Alba, 31, a parishioner at St. Rose on West 165th Street. “It’s more like New Yorkers and English-speaking people who’ve been in contact with him.”"*
