Pray for the Holy Father!

Posted on by

At the beginning of Midnight Mass, the Holy Father was knocked over by an insane woman, who managed to jump over the barrier. The security men weren’t quite quick enough.

Our beloved Pope Benedict XVI was apparently unharmed and celebrated the Mass. He was probably shocked and dazed.

I’m sure the woman must be now in a nice warm padded cell with Nurse Diesel looking after her! And in the hands of the Italian health service, hopefully slower and more incompetent than usual. Happy Christmas!

The Holy Father needs our support and prayers, and we all at The Anglo-Catholic wish him a merry Christmas and many long years among us.
