Readings for today's Mass:

No papal stories on Page 1 of today's OR. Inside, there is a story on the final program for the Holy Father's visit to the United Kingdom and an essay by Mons. Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster, about the visit. Page 1 stories: At least 8 million homeless due to Pakistan's worst floods in recent memory; the last US combat troops leave Iraq - 50,000 remain as trainers and advisers to the Iraqi military; a tribute to the late ex-President Francesco Cossiga as a man with 'granitic and open faith' by Cardinal Bertone; and editor Vian's history of the ecumenical community of Taize (the experience of which has marked his personal life deeply).
