The pope's next stop will be The Horseshoe where he will be greeted by USC faculty, students and staff and meet with President and Mrs. Holderman at their house. He is also planning to participate in a service at Williams-Brice stadium that will be open to the public. "The university is of course honored and delighted that Pope John Paul II has chosen to visit South Carolina and the university," said USC spokesman Hans Knoop. "The influence of the pope and of Pope John Paul II in particular extends fat beyond the Catholic church into every corner of the world," Knoop said. "He is recognized across the globe as a leading statesman, a proponent of ecumcnicism, and a force for world peace, and as such he is welcomed to Carolina." The university is co-sponsoring the * a ? i 10/^ :<l ?i t\: r r m i * pope s vibii 10 ujl wnn wit; i^iuucm- 01 *^nai icmuii, which is headed by Bishop Ernest Unterkoeflei. "The bishop is delighted," said Paul Beach, director of the office of communication and public f affairs for the diocese. "This is something that he ' has discussed with the Holy Father for a number of * years." Beach said the pope decided to visit South Carolina because he wanted to "highlight relations s between the Catholic Church and other 5 denominations. t e "His concern was precisely with the question of ecumenicism." 3 The pope plans to join leaders of other Christian churches in prayer during his visit to Columbia. Aitnougn tnis is the pope s second visit to the United States, it is his first visit to South Carolina. The state has a low number of Catholics ? of the 52 million Catholics in the United States, only about 76,000 are South Carolinians. Pope John Paul II has been pope since Oct. 12, 1978. He has been one of the most active and traveled popes in modern times. He has also been vocal in political matters, especially those concerning his native country of Poland. According to Knoop, plans such as security and agenda have not been finalized, and ticket distribution will be left to the diocese.
