The Roman Catholic Church has just appointed a new archbishop. An Italian who speaks Russian well.
The relationship between both churches has been cold for a long time now.
OXFORD, England (CNS) – A Catholic leader in Russia said the Italian missionary named archbishop of Moscow will "be well able to lead the local church and find ways through difficult situations."
Archbishop-designate Paolo Pezzi, 47, "is highly educated, with great pastoral experience," said Father Igor Kovalevsky, secretary-general of the Russian bishops' conference. "He speaks Russian well and has a deep interest in Russian culture, as well as a strong and visible record of achievement as seminary rector in St. Petersburg."

No circumstances can separate us from the love of God, so today, we lift
our eyes with understanding to Heaven and joyfully celebrate the Nativity
of Christ.
