Pope Benedict XVI arrives in Washington, D.C. today for a six visit. The Pope will celebrate masses in both Nationals Stadium and Yankee Stadium during his trip.
The Chicago Sun Times has a brief itinerary. (“Thursday: Mass at Nationals Park. Meets with Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Jews.”)
The Pontiff will miss the Bavarian spread the White House is laying on for Wednesday night. However, he has announced his Popemobile routes.
Benedict will be only the second pope to visit the White House. John Paul II was the first, in 1979.
Sign o’ the times: the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops is blogging Benedict.
