CWN Editor's Note: Meeting on March 24 with relatives of Polish miners who were killed in an accident last April, Pope Francis told them that questioning God can be a form of prayer.

“In the darkness, the Lord is near,” the Pope assured the family members. “We do not know how, but He is near to us.”
