The aim for
which you have always striven since your very first years as a priest has been
to serve the truth, seeking to know it ever more thoroughly and make it ever
more widely known.
Blessed John
Paul II wrote this of his successor in 2002, when Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was
celebrating the 50th Anniversary of his ordination to the
priesthood. As Pope Benedict XVI, Ratzinger continued striving for this aim, never
wavering in his mission to share the truth.
Thank you,
Holy Father, for giving your profound love for the Gospel to the
Church. We will be praying for you,
as your flock and as your brothers and sisters in Christ.
