The Pope Visits Children's Hospital
Here are some moving images of the Holy Father visiting sick children in the Bambino Gesu hospital, five minutes away from the Vatican. Let us pray for these little ones.
The hospital staff and patients greeting the Pope
The Holy Father waves back!
Pope Benedict blesses a child in his hospital bed.
The Holy Father visibly touched by their suffering.
A Pope's kiss for his child and a child clings to
his spiritual father.
At one point, a child mistook the Holy Father for a doctor and started to cry. The nurse explained that it was because of the white robe, that the child felt scared. It must be traumatic for a child to be visited regularly by the doctor, knowing that he or she will be examined or given a shot or some unpleasant medicine.

I love how the Holy Father seems to be really enjoying his papacy. God has really blessed him.
You're right 4hisChurch! God is good to those who love Him! And Benedict is the Pope He has given to us and we are so blessed! And yes, God also gives the Pope great joy in his ministry!
