Pope Benedict XVI in the flesh!

Br. C shared with me several really exciting photos... Our very own Bishop John Lee and Fr. Nicholas Stephen met with Pope Benedict XVI in the flesh!!!!! Wow!


And here I thought only Archbishops or some higher ranking clergy would be able to have an audience with the Pope hehe... So it's rather exciting to know someone we know (from KK) had actually rub shoulder and exchange words with this famous, respected religious leader :)

i saw in catholic sabah about the must-have visit by our bishops for the Pope. Something like, annual report to the boss but this one is done in every 4-5 yrs if im not mistaken.

Kadazanmonk says: for your information it is POPE BENEDICT XVI (16th) not XI (11th) lah. Pope Benedict XI died a long time ago..hehehehe...and for everyone information, bishops must make a trip to Rome to meet the pope every two years. No, Fr. Nick is not yet a bishop but he happens to be in Rome studying Spirituality at the Angelicum and was invited to see the Pope by our dear Bishop John Lee.
