JOHN  XX111





Quote for Today - Feast of St. Joseph - March 19,  2011


"The representative of the highest spiritual authority of the earth is glad, indeed boasts, of being the son of a humble but robust and honest laborer."


Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli [1881-1963], Pope John XXIII. This is a remark he made to the mayor of Fleury-sur-Loire - town in Central France - population 240 in the year 2007. This comment can be found in Wit and Wisdom of Good Pope John, collected by Henri Fesquet [ 1963]
