Pop Japan

Pope Francis arrived in Japan on Saturday. He is the first leader of the Roman Catholic Church to visit Japan in 38 years. The pope will offer a moment of silence, and prayers, and lay flowers at ground zero. He will also visit Nishizaka Park - the site of 26 Catholics executed because of their faith in 1597. The pontiff also met with the Japanese bishops and members of the clergy that includes Archibishop Joseph Mitsuaki Takami and Cardinal Thomas Aquino Manyo Maeda.
