Scenron at La Vigna del Signore (blogsite and Facebook) has posted two additional photographs of the Ukrainian Catholic bishops' visit to Benedict XVI at Mater Ecclesiae last week. With my usual thanks to Beatrice for the find. (I have to find out how Scenron manages to get photographs like this. Perhaps the Ukrainian bishops hired a photogrpaher from Felici of Rome to document their visit.)



The picture we previously saw takes pride of place. I consider it iconic.


Then there's B16 blessing the first stone for a planned Benedictine monastery in Lvov, with Archbishop Miecieslaw Mocrzyski of Lvov, 'don Mietek' when he was second private secretary to John Paul II and then to Benedict XVI.


The obligatory group picture. B16 looks quite fit and youthful!
It's too bad the Greek Catholic Ukrainian bishops led by patriarch Cardinal Shevchuk did not join their Roman Catholic colleagues for this visit.
