HOW CAN WE EVER FORGET?


This image alone brings back the tremendous burden of poignancy one carries forever in the heart since our beloved Benedict announced his renunciation on February 11, 2013 - a poignancy made infinitely worse today because he could not have known the appalling magnitude of the unintended consequences brought on by his stepping down.

May God grant him the consolation that He alone can bring - and, though we are unaware what the Lord has in store for His Church at this moment in time, may that consolation redound to the good of the Church through these trying years without a shepherd worthy of the name and office.
