It's all over the news! His Holiness is coming to Manila on January 2015. What makes it very special? He's arriving on my birthday! (January 15: exactly 60 days from today). This event will be memorable not only to me but also to all the Catholics here in the Philippines.
Birthday wish: to be able to see him in person. I didn't have the chance to see (in person) Pope John II on his Manila visits because I don't have the means... but I watched almost all the coverages of his visit on television. I hope this time I will have a glimpse of Pope Francis. (extra na If i could bless his hand: super wish!)
Vatican also released his itinerary:
