Welcome Pope Benedict XVI

The Cardinals met and, in a very short conclave, elected Cardinal Ratzinger as our next Pope.

By all accounts, Pope Benedict is a man of great intellectual gifts and committment to the core teachings of the Church. Monsignor Bonnell (my pastor) says that we are all in good hands. I think he's probably right.

If you'd like to get some insight into Pope Benedict, you can read the homily he delivered at his inaguration Mass.
