In September Pope Francis is coming to Philadelphia, where he'll attend the World Meeting of Families and celebrate an outdoor Sunday Mass on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. How does this affect Unionville? A friend reports hearing that some locals are converting their homes into informal B&Bs and taking in paying guests during the Pope's visit. People are flocking to our area from far and wide to see the popular pontiff and are scrambling for a place to stay, even this far outside of Philadelphia: hotel rooms in the city and suburbs are few and far between.
