Pan anti-Pope demonstrators yelling and holding signs\u003cbr/\u003ePope Benedict XVI began the final day of his American visit on Sunday by blessing the site of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and meeting with those who lost a family member on that day. \u003cbr/\u003eThe visit by Benedict to Ground Zero was a poignant moment in a trip marked by festive crowds anxious to see the man who for three years has led the world's Roman Catholics.\u003cbr/\u003eBenedict was driven in the Popemobile part-way down a ramp now used mostly by construction trucks to a spot by the north tower's footprint. \u003cbr/\u003eHe walked the final steps, knelt in silent prayer for a few moments, then rose to light a memorial candle.\u003cbr/\u003e\"We ask in your goodness to give eternal light and peace to all who died here, to heroic first responders: our firefighters, police officers, emergency service workers and Port Authority personnel, along with all the innocent men and women who were victims of this tragedy simply because their work or service brought them here on September 11, 2001,\" the Pope said.\u003cbr/\u003eBenedict asked 24 people with ties to Ground Zero to join him at the Sunday morning service including survivors, victims' relatives and rescue workers, and he greeted each one personally.\u003cbr/\u003eThose who were on the ground zero site and got the chance to see Benedict up close, say it was a special moment.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Just being close to him and having the feeling of closure again is enough for me,\" said retired firefighter George Bachmann, who barely survived the attacks.\u003cbr/\u003eSome family members were able to speak to the Pope and tell him about their lost loved one or their personal story of survival. \u003cbr/\u003e\"Our faith was destroyed that day. We said where was God on 9/11, but he's come back here today and they've restored our faith and made us strong,\" said Jimmy Richards, who lost his firefighter son Jimmy in the attacks.\u003cbr/\u003eAll of Richard's four sons became firefighters, including Jimmy, who was killed at age 29 in the World Trade Center attacks along with more than 2,700 others.\u003cbr/\u003eAs has been the case since the Pope's arrival in New York, demonstrators showed up to both celebrate and condemn the Pope's visit.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Westborough Baptist Church, from Topeka, Kansas, set up across the street from the Ground Zero site, carrying signs reading, \"Pervert Pope\" and \"The Pope is a Lying Whore.\"  \u003cbr/\u003eThe group is best known for protesting against military funerals by claiming that God was punishing America for allowing homosexuality. \u003cbr/\u003eThe group also claims that God killed the victims of September 11th because of mankind's sins. \u003cbr/\u003eStudents from Montclair State University in New Jersey protested against the Westborough Baptist Church members, saying their message was one of hate while theirs was one of love and peace.\u003cbr/\u003eThe site where the World Trade Center was destroyed is normally filled with hundreds of workers building a 102-story skyscraper, a memorial and transit hub. \u003cbr/\u003eIt bears little resemblance to the debris-filled pit where crews toiled to remove twisted steel and victims' remains.\u003cbr/\u003eThe remains of more than 1,100 people have never been
