“Gen Y’s papal connection”
July 27, 2008 by — 0 comments.
The Australian’s Christopher Pearson gives a very reasonable post-WYD report. Some excerpts: Last week the Pope assured Sydney’s huge crowds that the church was not old and moribund but, like them, full of youth and vigour. To a wider audience, especially in Australia, this may well have seemed counter-intuitive. However, from a global perspective it’s [...]
