MESSAGE: 46th World Communications Day, 2012 – Silence and Word: Path of Evangelization

NOTE: Not much this week, despite a lot of recent activity from the pope. There’s some really good Benedict-ions waiting to be translated into English (I am particularly waiting for translations of his annual January addresses to the Roman Rota and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, both of which are up in Italian). I wish the Vatican translation squad would get moving and get them done and posted.
