Our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI steps down on Thursday 28th February.
Here are a few video clips about him - the first video is a brief biography from ROME REPORTS.
The second video clip is for the HONOURS STUDENTS from Fr Robert Barron who gives a more detailed view of the legacy of Pope Benedict XVI.
Speaking in Rome yesterday for his final Sunday address, he said,
" Dear brothers and sisters, I feel that this Word of God is particularly directed at me, at this point in my life. The Lord is calling me to "climb the mountain", to devote myself even more to prayer and meditation. But this does not mean abandoning the Church, indeed, if God is asking me to do this it is so that I can continue to serve the Church with the same dedication and the same love with which I have done thus far, but in a way that is better suited to my age and my strength. Let us invoke the intercession of the Virgin Mary: may she always help us all to follow the Lord Jesus in prayer and works of charity."
Let us keep him in our prayers and his successor...who ever he will be!.
