In a ceremony held at St. Peter's Basilica, Pope Benedict XVI elevated 24 new Princes of the Church. Among those called to the Sacred College of Cardinals are two Americans: Raymond Cardinal Burke, prefect of the Apostolic Signatura, and Donald Cardinal Wuerl, cardinal archbishop of Washington. Among the others worthy mention here include Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, cardinal archbishop of Columbo, and 93-year old Domenico Cardinal Bartolucci, the maestro in perpetuo emeritus of the Sistine Chapel.LAUDETOR IESUS CHRISTUS!
