The Last Public Words of Pope Benedict XVI
Thank you – thank you from my heart!
Dear friends, I'm happy to be with you, that I can see the Creator's beauty around us, and all the goodness you've given to me – thank you for your friendship and your affection!
You know that this day of mine hasn't been like those before. I'm no longer the Supreme Pontiff of the Catholic church – at least, I soon won't be any more – now I'm just a pilgrim beginning the last part of his journey on earth.
With all my heart, with all my love, with my prayer and all my strength – with everything in me – I'd like to work for the common good of the church and all humanity. I feel your kindness so much.
Let us always move together toward the Lord for the good of the church and of the world. Thank you for bringing yourselves [here] – with all my heart, I give you my blessing….
Thank you and goodnight!
