A Pope Turns Ninety

He has plenty of life left in him. He is three years younger than Henry and our Henry still rides his bike to the post office and store. :D
**********************************************************
Although he was not born on the feast of Easter, but the day before, the Vigil of the Lord’s Resurrection, which sacred tradition speaks of as the Mystery of Holy Saturday, it remains central to his life.
Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
