THE POPE RECEIVES INVITATION TO MAKE PASTORAL VISIT TO MONGOLIA

VATICAN CITY, JUL 8, 2003 (VIS) - Joaquin Navarro-Valls, director of the Holy See Press Office, made the following statement today at midday:

"I can confirm that the Holy Father has been invited by the Government of Mongolia and by the Apostolic Prefecture of Ulan Bator to make a pastoral visit to the country. The invitation has been much appreciated but I must indicate that a decision has not yet been made as to the date of such a trip. Therefore, news of a trip to the Mongolian capital next month is not confirmed."
