From Aleteia:
There are already plenty of good reasons for an American Catholic to come to France. You can pray at Lourdes, step inside the newly restored Notre-Dame, follow in the footsteps of St. Thérèse, climb the hill to Sacré-Cœur, and encounter enough saints, shrines, and spectacular churches to make you seriously reconsider the amount of time you’ve allocated to your trip.
This September, however, there’s another rather compelling reason to cross the Atlantic: the Pope is coming, too. From September 25 to 28, Pope Leo XIV will make an apostolic journey to France, with stops in Paris, Lourdes, and Metz.
