The Pilgrim of Peace

Our Lady of Lebanon
Our very courageous, serene, faith-filled Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, in spite of the horrific violence in the Middle East, journeyed to Lebanon this past weekend to bring a message of love and peace.  Here is a link to an article that covers our Holy Father's talk to young people - 10,000 of them - on Saturday, September 15.  http://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/pope-calls-lebanese-youth-to-revolution-of-love/

For the full texts of his messages in Lebanon I encourage you to visit http://www.zenit.org and search the documents section. (e.g.  http://www.zenit.org/article-35543?l=english) Pope Benedict is a prophet for our times, a kind, brilliant, man of God and he speaks the truth so that everyone can understand.  If you don't know him or his writings, I urge you to take time to listen to what he has to say.  He speaks the Truth - and that Truth is Jesus.
