Capping a year of tributes to his predecessor, Pope Benedict goes to Poland this week to urge John Paul's countrymen to defend their Christian heritage.
The 79-year-old German Pope will spend four days in Poland starting on Thursday, visiting all the places that were central to the life and spiritual formation of John Paul. He will also visit the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz.
