Church announces dates for pope's Cuba trip

HAVANA (AP) -- The Roman Catholic Church in Cuba has announced the dates and a partial itinerary for Pope Benedict XVI's much-anticipated visit to the island.

The church said in a statement Sunday that the pontiff will be in Cuba from March 26 to 28, following a visit to Mexico.

Benedict will touch down in the western city of Santiago de Cuba, where he will be received personally by President Raul Castro.

He will make a private trip the following day to the sanctuary of Cuba's patron saint, the Virgin of Caridad del Cobre. He will fly later to the capital Havana where he is due to perform Mass at the sprawling Revolution Plaza on Mar. 28 before departing early that afternoon.
