On March

the white smoke came out of the chimney above the Sistine Chapel, signifying
that a Pope has been elected. It was after the fifth vote that the decision has
been reached, on the second day of voting. Thousands of rain-drenched people
gathered in the St Peter's Square to welcome the new Pope. Cardinal Tauran of
France appeared in the balcony and announced the much-awaited words...
"Annuntio Vobis Gaudium Magnum - Habemus Papam.....Eminentissimum ac Reverendissimum Cardinalem Jorge Bergoglio, cui nomen imposuit, Franciscum I
When we walk without the Cross, when we build
without the Cross, and when we profess Christ without the Cross, we are not
disciples of the Lord. We are worldly, we are bishops, priests, cardinals,
Popes, but not disciples of the Lord. Let us never give in to the pessimism, discouragement, to that bitterness, that the devil places before us every day.
