His message of turning to Christ our hope is simple and yet so profound.

First of all, there was the expression of shame, first made on the flight to America and repeated several times.   We are deeply ashamed, he said, of this gravely immoral [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=usccb.wordpress.com&blog=2999764&post=99&subd=usccb&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

At St. Patrick’s Cathedral, for example, Benedict emphasized that the Church and all its members are “called to proclaim the gift of life, to serve life, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=usccb.wordpress.com&blog=2999764&post=98&subd=usccb&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At every venue where I experienced Pope Benedict’s presence in New York, the spirit was electric. From the exuberance of the 57,000 faithful at Yankee Stadium to the quieter, but just as enthusiastic, response of clergy, religious and laity at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the atmosphere was filled with joy.
In Yankee Stadium, I joined hundreds of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=usccb.wordpress.com&blog=2999764&post=97&subd=usccb&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

 Just broad smiles, repeated thanks, wide embraces, and deep affection. Some critics thought they knew Cardinal Ratzinger. And so now they [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=usccb.wordpress.com&blog=2999764&post=96&subd=usccb&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
