Papal greetings to bishops attending Focolare conference

CWN - February 09, 2011

At the conclusion of his regular weekly audience on February 9, Pope Benedict XVI recognized a group of about 70 bishops from around the world who are participating in a conference organized by the Focolare movement.

"I am pleased that you are having this opportunity to exchange ecclesial experiences from various parts of the world,” the Pope said to the bishops, who are meeting at Castel Gandolfo. He offered his prayers for the success of their meeting.
