Cardinal Roger Etchegaray was reported in good condition after undergoing hip-replacement surgery - good news.

Many years,

Neil

How sad! Prayers for a rapid recovery for +Roger. A total hip at that age can be dire.

Deacon Borislav,

It appears that she has a history of mental instability.

Many years,

Still very disturbing, although it is good to know this was not some kind of planned and executed attempt on the life of the Pope.

Prayers for +Roger

Christ is Born!! Christ is in our midst!!

Serious stuff. Attacks on the Pope and the Cardinal. Attacks on Russian priests with one martyrdom.

Somehow I believe that the upcoming year will not be a good one for Christians and our clergy.
