Led by the Father Rector of the Collegio Filippino, twelve resident priests attended the Holy Mass presided over by His Eminence Zenon Cardinal Grocholewski to officially mark the beginning of the academic year 2006-07 at St. Peter's Basilica. In the homily of the Cardinal, it was emphasized to purify one's intentions in studying here in Rome and to get oneself closer to Christ as the Apostles during the ministry of Jesus. After the Mass, the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI met the students, seminarians, priests, formators, professors and rectors of the different collegio and pontifical universities. He exhorted every one to ask the Lord (based on Lk 11,1): insegnaci a pensare, a scrivere, e a parlare...Having entrusted everyone present to the Seat of Wisdom, the Blessed Virgin Mary, to accompany us in our studies this academic year, the Holy Father extended his apostolic blessings to us and to all our loved ones.
