Pope visit Belgium

VARIOUS, BELGIUM

September will see Pope Francis travel to Belgium, which will be significant as the Pope does not often travel to European nations. The papal-led Eucharistic ceremony on Sunday, 29 September, in Brussels' King Baudouin Stadium will be the high point of the visit. A major highlight of the tour will be the 600th anniversary celebrations at KU Leuven and UCLouvain.
