THE MALTA VISIT ON O.R.
OR for 4/19-4/20.
L'Osservatore Romano, under the erratic management of Giovanni Maria Vian, put out two special issues on Benedict XVI's visits abroad which I had hoped would be kept up - the first was the US visit in 2008. Then there was the issue on WYD in Sydney, with its incredibly rich spectrum of experiences and images - from the Pope's unprecedented stay at Bushwick to the transformative sights and sounds of secular Sydney converted for at least a week into the capital of contemporary Christianity in all its one, holy, and apostolic Catholicism. [P.S. I erroneously said earlier there was no special issue on Syndey, sorry!] The OR then came out with a special issue about the visit to France, but then nothing after that. Especially since the next foreign visit after France was the Pope;s firs trip to Africa, and the next one to the Holy Land. If a papal pilgrimage to the Holy Land does not deserve a special issue, what does?
In effect, the April 19-20 OR is ths special issue on Malta. It includes, of course, all the papal texts delivered during the visit, as well as the send-off spech of President Abela (but strangely, not his welcome). It would have been good to include the greetings delivered by the ARchbishops of Malta and Gozo respectively to the Pope, because the hosts' welcome remarks are not just their tribute to the visitor but also a statement of the host Church's pastoral priorities. These are the photos OR posted online for the issue:
I am suffering from particularly extreme allergic reactions to all the pollen in the air and today was so bad I took an extra dose of my medications which knocked me out in the middle of the afternoon for the next 10 hours. To my horror, I lost the day. A terrible way to start off the sixth year of the Pontificate, so now I will try to play catch-up....
