Hundreds of thousands watch at St. Peter's Square

VATICAN CITY (CNN) -- Pope Benedict XVI was formally installed at a Mass Sunday outside St. Peter's Basilica in front of an audience of hundreds of thousands and millions of others watching on television.

During his homily, the new pontiff said he wished to reach out to Jews and "believers and non-believers alike" and asked for prayers from the St. Peter's Square onlookers as he assumed "this enormous task." "Let us do all we can to pursue the path toward the
unity you have promised," he said. "Grant that we may be one flock and one shepherd. Do not allow your net to be torn. Help us to be servants of unity."
In one of the most symbolic moments, Benedict was given his Fisherman's Ring and a woolen pallium or shawl -- both symbols of his papal authority. The ring is emblazoned with an image of Peter casting his fishing nets and was traditionally used to seal apostolic letters. The formal inauguration of the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger came in a tradition-steepe dceremony that officially launched the pontificate of the 265th leader of the Roman Catholic Church. Wearing golden vestments and clutching his pastoral staff, Benedict began the ceremony by walking into the area under St. Peter's Basilica where St. Peter is believed to be buried, paying homage to the first pope and blessing the tomb with incense as a choir chanted. Priests bearing Benedict's Fisherman's Ring and the woolen shawl led off a procession of cardinals out the basilica and onto the steps leading to the square. The crowds applauded as Benedict emerged from the basilica to the chant of the Litany of Saints. There were fewer people than the 3 million who flocked to Rome for the funeral of Pope John Paul II on April 8, but the square filled up and overflowed onto the Via della Concilazione leading to it. Many people toted banners and flags -- including from Benedict's native Germany. More than 350,000 people -- including up to 100,000 Germans -- and hundreds of state and religious leaders from around the world gathered in and around the square, the Vatican said. The broadcasting of the ceremony all over the world, on television, online and on the radio, befits a man who vowed Saturday to emulate his predecessor's embracing of the media.
