Eyewitness Accounts: The Final Ministry

Documented testimonies from officials, firefighters, and French filmmakers Jules and Gédéon Naudet inside the North Tower.

"He was standing right by the command desk in the North Tower lobby. His lips were moving silently. He was praying with an intense, calm focus for every man who went through those turnstiles up into the stairwells."

Mayor Rudolph Giuliani & FDNY Command Staff

"Naudet documentary footage captures Father Mychal pacing the dusty lobby, his head bare, looking upward toward the elevator banks as alarms wailed, continuously offering absolution to firefighters gearing up."

"When the South Tower collapsed at 9:59 AM, debris shattered the glass concourse. Father Judge had just finished administering last rites to a fallen firefighter. He was struck by flying debris while ministering."
