The Itinerary from the Vatican

For those interested in the "official" itinerary of the Holy Father, you'll find it on the Vatican website, here. In looking at it recently, I pulled out a couple of interesting nuggets.

During the Holy Father's six days in the U.S., he'll be delivering eight addresses and three homilies.

Also, note from the schedule that he will be celebrating two large public Masses (at Nationals Park and Yankee Stadium), one Mass with clergy and religious (at St. Patrick's Cathedral), and one private Mass on Friday, April 18 in the Chapel of the Apostolic Nunciature in Washington.
