Pope Will Visit Canadian Indians After U.S. Trip
- Share via
VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II will make a one-day trip to Canada at the end of his September tour of the United States to visit an Indian settlement, the Vatican announced Friday.
During his September, 1984, visit to Canada, thick fog prevented the Pope from flying to the Ft. Simpson settlement to meet Indians in Canada’s far north. But John Paul promised the Indians he would make the trip during his next North American tour.
The Pope’s second visit to the United States is scheduled for Sept. 10-19 and will include Los Angeles, Monterey and San Francisco.
