Pope: Meeting with the Bishops of the United States of America at St Matthew's Cathedral

Pope Francis is set to meet with the Bishops of the United States of America at St Matthews’s Cathedral, after his visit to the White House with president Obama on Wednesday -- the first black US president hailing the first pontiff from the Americas as a unique moral authority. The South Lawn of the White House echoed to the strains of the Pontifical Anthem, the Star-Spangled Banner and a thundering 21-gun salute, as Washingtonians thronged the streets for the historic visit.
