Benedict honours predecessor’s homeland

REV. RAYMOND J. DE SOUZA

Pope Benedict XVI’s trip to Poland is making clear he understands his mission as he expressed it in the first public words after his election, spoken from the balcony of St. Peter’s: “After the great John Paul …” He is content to be the one who comes after, and what is “after” is always to be understood in relation to what came before.
