My link says the 16th. I have a feeling that there is some real dissension in Rome about Bernie's invitation.

Yes, there is a tragic humanitarian crisis going on in the Mediterranean right now, with refugees being shipped back to Turkey. But it isn't new and the first shipments began this week. So for the Pope to head there at the time of Bernie's visit speaks volumes.
