'Holy Father, what joy!'<\/p>\n
Ad limina visits tend to be very formal, but there are many warm receptions like this one with the Australian bishops.<\/p>\n
'I still remember your beautiful preaching.'<\/p>\n
'Yes?'<\/p>\n
'Thank you.'<\/p>\n
Many brought images to bless, including a photograph of this convent.<\/p>\n
'Bless this image.'<\/p>\n
A group of children sent a colorful letter to the pope.<\/p>\n
Msgr. Bosco Pathur, from the Syro- Malabar community, from the Eastern-Syrian rite, in communion with the Church of Rome, attended the meeting.<\/p>\n
During the meeting, one present caught the attention of all attendees. It was the perfect gift for the Roman summer.<\/p>\n
'An Australian hat. The pope is Argentinian, but with an Australian hat.'<\/p>\n
'Thank you.'<\/p>\n
'It looks very good.'<\/p>\n
Since Pope Francis' English isn't very good, he preferred to speak in Italian.<\/p>\n
'I will speak in Italian.'<\/p>\n
In the meeting, they surely mentioned the situation with Cardinal George Pell, who is in jail, after being accused of abuse. During these weeks, the court is assessing his appeal.<\/p>\n
The visit ended with a photograph of all the Australian bishops with the pope.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
