Pray for him personally, for his safety, for the realization of his intentions, for God's blessing.
On a side note, Raymond Arroyo noted that the President of the United States is planning an all-out welcome for His Holiness, who arrives in Washington Tuesday for a five-day visit (April 15-20th). "Most notably, Bush will go to the airport to receive the Holy Father, a courtesy he has never extended to any visiting leader." Reportedly, the Pope will be paying a personal visit to President Bush's family at the White House, although I cannot confirm this by independent sources at the moment.
For the drive-by media's coverage of the Papal visit, take your chances where you will. But for in-depth coverage of select issues, I recommend BenedictInAmerica.blogspot.com, a site devoted to the Pope's Apostolic Journey to the U.S. and sponsored by the Pope Benedict Fan Club. What can I say? I'm biased.
