Spanish cardinal lobbying to host World Youth Day

Cardinal Antonio Maria Ruoco Varela of Madrid, Spain, has asked Pope Benedict XVI to designate his archdiocese as the host for the next worldwide celebration of World Youth Day, Vatican Radio reports.

Traditionally the host city for the international celebration is announced during the World Youth Day celebrations, which will be held in July in Sydney, Australia.

The next worldwide celebration will probably take place in 2011.
