Made by Don Giulio Neroni (who, unsurprisingly, created the two various other papal albums) and offering snippets of speeches from Vatican Town, Korea, Rio de Janeiro, Rome, and Manila, AWAKEN! brought Francis’ compassionate and all-inclusive plan to a wider viewers of followers struggling to hear his message in the flesh.
