Pope Benedict XVI, the Covenant Bridge Builder

J.M.J. + O.B.T.
At Auschwitz:

"As if it were not enough for a German pope to visit an extermination camp on Polish soil, even the weather was symbolic, with a strong wind and rain through which the sun shone occasionally and the moment the prayers began, in various languages and of various faiths, a rainbow appeared."

And a few days later:

For their message to be credible, Benedict XVI invited Catholic communicators to give "a luminous testimony" of profound Christian life, being always "tenaciously united to Christ", to be able to look at the world with his very eyes.

The Pope continued: "Experience the happiness of belonging to the Church and of introducing your voice and reasons in the great circuit of communication. "Do not tire of building bridges of understanding and communication between the ecclesial experience and public opinion."

The signs are very clear...to me at least, we must seek Christ in the Eucharist.

Sincerely yours in Jesus and Mary,

Imitate Mary
