A Catholic News Agency story says the last days of Pope Benedict XVI will include three public appearances, a meeting with the priests of Rome, Lenten spiritual exercises, and audiences with politicians and cardinals.

The first event on the list is Ash Wednesday Mass this evening in St. Peter's Basilica, which will be his final concelebration of the liturgy.

His final public appearance will be the general audience on Feb. 27, which was originally planned for Paul VI Hall, but is being moved to St. Peter's Square because of the large number of people expected.
