Pope to visit Japan where Catholics are a small minority
Pope John Paul II will tour Japan from February 23 to 26, finding a secure yet minority Catholic church in an industrialized nation. Only about 1 percent of Japan's 116 million people are Christian, with fewer than 400,000 Catholics, amid a history of early missions, persecution, and later reopening. The trip also includes stops in the Philippines, Guam, and Anchorage.
