I am so impressed with our new Pope.
I already love him dearly.
John Paul 11 obviously found Benedict XVI a kindred spirit----intellectually and doctrinally. No doubt that influenced the College of Cardinals' selection process.
Let us pray that even with the great burden he now holds on his spare shoulders---with so many global believers of all faiths placing their fondest hopes in him---that he will move ahead surefooted, stand fast in the faith, and let nothing deter him from the great tasks ahead.
