STORYLINE
Pope Francis heads on Sunday into the crime-ridden Mexico City suburb of Ecatepec to see firsthand the reality of the Mexican "periphery," where drug violence, gangland-style executions, kidnappings and extortion are daily facts of life.
Pilgrims began lining the streets and searching for good positions from early Saturday evening eagerly awaiting Francis' arrival at 1130 am local time (1730 GMT) on Sunday.
Many of the faithful spent the night on the streets in order to reserve their places for Sunday's event.
The pontiff is expected to bring a message of hope and solidarity to residents with a Mass featuring readings about not being tempted by the devil, a common exhortation from a pope who frequently invokes the threat of "the evil one."
The Mass is to take place at an outdoor field with an estimated capacity of 400,000, and the pope's choice of Ecatepec for what figures to be his biggest event in Mexico says volumes about his priorities.
The city of some 1.6 million people is a sprawling carpet of cinderblock shantytowns mixed in with some better-off neighborhoods, and a strategic point for drug cartels that thrive amid entrenched poverty, unemployment, impunity and corruption.
