God bless our Holy Father.
Several times the Office of the Holy See has come onto our web site.
I think he might have listened to some Padre Pfeiffer sermons.
You decide.
Here is some of what he has had to say recently:
"We have reason not to let ourselves be influenced - as Pope John said - by the prophets of doom... Naturally, there is a false optimism and a false pessimism. A false pessimism that says: Christianity's time is over. No: it begins anew! The false optimism was that following the Council, when convents closed down, seminaries closed down, and they said: well... this is nothing, all is well... No! All is not well!"
Reverend Father Joseph Pfeiffer.
A lover of souls.
