Ever since Pope Benedict XVI announced his sudden resolve to resign, he has been scheduled to make his first open appearance today at the Ash Wednesday service as he oversees his regular congregation.

Later today, the pope will give a lengthy sermon on the importance of observing lent as Christians. This year the Vatican announced at the last hour that the service would be held at the St. Peter’s Basilica due to the huge crowd that has been anticipated. Apart from today’s service, the usual location for the yearly Ash service is the church on Rome’s Aventine Hill.

    Mrs Okoro, i need you to give more lights on why your lord had to resigned, which was generally believed not to be on health grounds.

    The truth of the whole matter is that the Pope is not called. If he believes on him, He will heal him of whatever the illness he’s suffering from. If he eventually resigns, where is then his faith in God who called him. He had been working on his own strength and not on the grace.
