CWN Editor's Note: The Vatican’s Christmas tree arrived yesterday in St. Peter’s Square. The 80-ft.-high tree is a gift of two municipalities in northern Italy.
Bishop Ivo Muser of Bolzano-Bressanone said that “the felling of the tree is not an act of disrespect, but the result of careful forest management, where tree removal is part of an active care strategy that ensures the health of the forest and control its growth.”
