    “The first Mass celebrated on the banks of the Mississippi River took place in 1698 in present-day St. Louis, Missouri.  The Church grew steadily, and the faithful multiplied in numbers.  Three hundred years later, in the heartland of America, the Prince of the Catholic Church came to celebrate the Eucharist and preach the Gospel of Christ.  United in faith, people from the Archdiocese of St. Louis and from around the world gathered to embrace the Pontiff’s message of peace and reconciliation.  Pope John Paul II, the 263rd Vicar of Christ, arrived in St. Louis on January 26, 1999.  Tens of thousands of people lined the parade routes and cheered.  The air was electric with excitement and spiritual renewal.  During his 32-hour pastoral visit, the Holy Father touched the hearts of people of all faiths.  He addressed the youth gathered to celebrate their baptismal call to encounter Christ.  He celebrated their baptismal call to encounter Christ.  He celebrated Mass with an assembly of 90,000 faithful at an indoor venue while thousands more braved the winter weather and prayed outside.  At an ecumenical prayer service on the second day of his visit, Pope John Paul II, the worldwide leader of more than a billion Catholics, reached out to people around the globe, inviting them to take up the challenge and enter the new millennium with Christ as their Shepherd.”
