CWN Editor's Note: Father Giuseppe Ambrosoli (1923-1987), an Italian Comboni missionary priest and medical doctor, was beatified in Kalongo, Uganda, on November 20.

“He was a Comboni missionary, priest and doctor, born in the Diocese of Como, who died in Uganda in 1987 after having spent his life for the sick, in whom he saw Christ’s face,” Pope Francis said on November 23, at the conclusion of his weekly general audience. “May his extraordinary witness help each one of us to be worthy of a Church on the move. “
