B16 to US Bishops: Evangelize!

This weekend, the Vatican website posted the first of several anticipated discourses by Pope Benedict XVI to the U.S. bishops during their ad limina visits. The hext can be found here.

I especially liked the fact that the Holy Father called attention to the USCCB's "Faithful Citizenship" document and to the recent symposium on the Intellectual Tasks of the New Evangelization that was covered more thoroughly here at NCR than anywhere else.
