Interesting that they are about to open a fresco with him. In the past, things like this would only be done after years or not at all. Are they now expecting more pilgrims in Genazzano?

It is interesting that the fresco was opened immediately during the visit. Before, it really took years to wait. Maybe they really count on more pilgrims to Genazzano.
