Some 200,000 pilgrims are expected to flock to the French shrine of Lourdes to attend a mass celebrated by Pope Benedict XVI on September 14, a French bishop says.

The head of the Roman Catholic Church will spend most of his September 12-15 visit to France in the southwestern town, one of the main Catholic pilgrimage sites which attracts some six million pilgrims each year.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
