Ralph Kilson, 54, greets the Pop-Up Pope, a cardboard cut-out of Pope Francis, in Wilmington, Delaware, September 19, 2015. In the run-up to the first visit of Pope Francis to the United States, a “joyful band of Catholics” takes a life-sized cardboard cut-out of the pope to the streets and bars of the city of Philadelphia. Their mission: to promote Catholicism and the Argentine pontiff's U.S. trip using street evangelism and a spirit of fun. The pope arrives in Washington on September 22, 2015. A public outdoor Mass in Philadelphia is expected to draw 1.5 million people, rounding off the six-day visit. (Photo by Mark Makela/Reuters)
