A “man of the Word ‘Benedict’,” Benedict XVI is also “a man of his word” showing us right now, as he has done over the past ten years, that “whoever believes is never alone,” Cardinal De Donatis observed.
With his “tenderness, goodness, humility, meekness, in deep communion with Pope Francis, the Pope Emeritus is a sign of the beautiful face of the Church which reflects the light of Christ’s face”, He said.
