CWN Editor's Note: On December 11, Pope Francis presided at the lighting of the Christmas tree (from Slovenia) and the inauguration of the Vatican Nativity scene (video). The latter has provoked controversy: the ceramic figures were created by high school students in Castelli, Italy, during the 1960s and 1970s.
