Mass-goers should prepare
for trip to attend papal Ma
By Elisa Hutchins
Staff Writer
By now, most people are probably
getting tired or being bombarded
with stories and the pope has not yet
arrived in San Antonio.
Stories about the popemobile,
what he will be wearing, how chil
dren are reacting to the upcoming
visit and vast speculation as to what
See related story, Page 1
and how issues are plaguing the
Catholic church are interesting. But
what can a person expect who is
making the trip to San Antonio or
the viewer who will be watching the
Mass at home?
Pope John Paul II will arrive Sept.
13 at Kelly Air Force Base around 10
a.m. and lead a bilingual Mass at 11
a.m. at a 150-acre site on the west
end of the city. After a two-hour rest
he will depart in the popemobile for
a parade in the downtown area.
There will be about 15 buses
going from the Bryan-College Sta
tion area to the pope’s Mass this
weekend, said the Rev. Leon
Strieder of St. Mary’s Catholic
Church in College Station. As of
Thursday afternoon, there were still
some seats available at a round-trip
cost of $20. Call 846-5717 for de
tails.
Strieder helped put together the
liturgy or music and readings for the
Mass along with the message priests
would like the pope to read.
“Reconciliation will be the theme,
for obvious reasons,’’ Strieder said.
Strieder said the pope will speak
for 30-45 minutes in each of the cit
ies he will be visiting.
“Different subjects will lx- dis
cussed,” he said. “In San Antonio,
Catholic charities will be the topic.
He will talk about social reform and
care for the poor."
Strieder, who met the pope briefly
in 1980, said he thinks the pope also
will address moral issues such as
women in the priesthood and homo
sexuals in the Church.
"He will probably only speak for a
few minutes and address a single is
sue in each city,” he said. “I only
hope that people can put aside the
issues and enjoy the visit.”

The San Antonio Catholic
Chancery is handling most of the de

of $2.5 million, administrative assis
tant Sister Charlene Wedelich said.
She estimated attendence for the
Mass at 500,000.
The Mass will be broadcast on va
rious channels. The major networks
aren’t carrying the event, but are
leaving the decision up to individual
stations, said a spokesman for
KBTX-TV, a CBS affiliate in Bryan-
College Stadon.
The program is being offered at
no cost.
As of Thursday, KBTX had not
determined if it will televise the
Mass, but the spokesman said Chan

carry it.
