Cardinal Bertone Presents My Popes

(ANS – Turin – March 14) – On March 14 Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, SDB, former secretary of state of the Holy See, presented his new book, I miei Papi, at Valdocco (Turin) before an audience of more than 150 people. The volume, published by Elledici (LDC), includes a preface by Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, president of the Pontifical Council for Culture. Fr. Valerio Bocci, general manager of Elledici, opened the presentation, which continued with questions by journalist Domenico Agasso Jr. Cardinal Bertone discussed his love for the Popes he has known and served, from Pius XII to Francis, especially the three most recent Popes. The cardinal concluded by saying: “In our Salesian tradition we recall the three great loves Don Bosco inculcated in us: love for the Eucharist, love for the Madonna, and love for the Pope. I never want to leave this path.”
