THPUEChR8/87 Builder to supply 2 mobile homes for pope in Texas mesqu nate j scape. But quite \ Chatel tooth i beanje “Me thing i We wagon T\v( BURLESON (AP) — A builder of mobile homes is supplying two of them for the use by Pope John Paul II and his entourage in the staging area at the site of a papal Mass in San Antonio in two weeks. Since the pope blesses every home he enters, builder Gary Lundvail of Burleson, 20 miles south of Fort Worth, figures there will be a de mand for the two homes later. “The homes will be placed at the staging area for the pope’s use, then they’ll remain on display for the rest of that week, for people who want to see them or look through them,” Lundvail told the Fort Worth Star- Telegram. “Then a plaque will be placed in each one — over the fireplace — say ing Pope John Paul II used the home,” he said. “Whoever buys it will also own the plaque.” And a blessing. Rene Nino, manager of Key Homes in San Antonio, a distributor for Oak Creek Homes of Burleson, which Lundvail manages, said, “The pope automatically dedicates (blesses) every home he enters.” All of which significantly en hances the value of these particular mobile homes. “Yeah ... I can’t help but believe that,” Nino said, “but we’re not looking to gouge anybody. “We’re not selling at a loss, but I’ll be happy as long as I break even.” Nino said he was contacted about five weeks ago by the Rev. David Garcia of the archdiocese in San An tonio. with tl “He had been in chargeo; ; :| c ht'rni( a staging area for the popes took h setting things up," Nino siBMpe day, he was just passing siKy e av when he looked at our jte§Stoves, liked w'hat he saw. i “He came in and introduce self and said he neededtw|to°i'e homes for the pope's use,ai.| < * 0zen looking at our inventoryhes!®lbng done all the looking he had I!

Wayne Wright is Baptist, but that didn’t stop the developers from do nating 144 acres of land so a Roman Catholic pope could celebrate Mass next month. The 40-year-old Wender, nick named “Marty,” is president of a real estate investment company that bears his name. He is a respected lo cal businessman and proponent of economic development for the state. to Wright is a 43-year-old attorney who has known Wender for four years. When Catholic church officials began planning for the visit of Pope John Paul II, they had trouble find ing a suitable site to accommodate the more than 500,000 followers ex pected for the Sunday Mass on Sept. 13. They turned to Wender and Wright who offered not only the use of the land, but also put up money to have it cleared. “It’s just something we felt was good for the community,” Wright said. “We’re not trying to get any credit for it. It’s not the sale of land and It’s notil help me. “But the opportunity to: 100 ac pope come to San Antoni Vere b tainly a significant thing to ice on very beneficial overall anc don ef could not find an appropD The could not have him here.T Four simply running out of option!
