Latin America rejoices at election of Benedict XVI
Lima, Apr. 20, 2005 (CNA) - Latin America is celebrating with joy the election of the new Pope, Benedict XVI. From Mexico to Chile millions followed the first moments of the new Pontiff, who was chosen on the second day of the Conclave.
“I imagined him to be a man with a strong character, but he is not like that. He is rather humble and simple. He is a good man and has a beautiful human side that we will be discovering little by little,” said Auxiliary Bishop Jose Trinidad Gonzalez Rodriguez of Guadalajara, Mexico, who opened his residence to the Pope during a visit in 1996 when he was Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
Monsignor Agustin Rivero, rector of the Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico, noted that “in every Mass we will pray and give thanks for the new Vicar of God.”<br> In Venezuela, Archbishop Baltazar Porras Cardoza of Merida and President of the Bishops Conference, said Benedict XVI is “a very simple man with enormous experience regarding the problems of the Church.”<br> In Lima, where church bells rang out upon the announcement of the election, Bishop Hugo Garaycoa Hawkins of Tacna-Monquegua and President of the Peruvian Bishops Conference, said the Holy Father will have a different style than John Paul II. “I think that each one has a different way of leading the Catholic Church, each Pope has his own style, and we cannot stereotype everything,” he stated.
Father Jorge Oesterheld, spokesman for the Bishops Conference of Argentina, said, “The election is very positive, a new Pope always means new possibilities and new times. He will surely surprise many because he is a man of great capabilities and enormous knowledge of the Roman curia.”<br> In Montevideo, the President of the Uruguayan Bishops Conference, Bishop Pablo Galimberti, said the Catholic Church contemplates his election “with serene confidence.” He noted the new Pope’s dedication to the struggle for human values and “his democratic and pluralist vision.”<br> Church bells in the historic downtown of Quito also rang out upon the election of Benedict XVI. “The election of the new Pope is a best response to the needs of the Church at this time,” said the President of the Bishops Conference of Ecuador, Bishop Nestor Herrera Heredia of Machala.
“I think he will be a blessing for the Church in Bolivia and for the universal Church, in the sense that Benedict XVI will be the pastor of the people of God chosen by Jesus Christ for his Church and for today’s world which he loves so much,” said Bishop Jesus Juarez of El Alto and secretary of the Bolivian Bishops Conference. “The new Pope, who has a profound knowledge of Latin America and the Spanish language, will help us to continue being the continent of hope,” said the President of the Bishops Conference of Chile, Bishop Alejandro Goic Karmelic of Rancagua.
The Apostolic Nuncio in Chile, Archbishop Aldo Cavalli, said he was pleased with the election of Benedict XVI and noted that Cardinal Ratzinger “is a Pope very capable and prepared given to us by God.” He noted the new Pontiff was very prepared “for the great mission” of being the servant of God in the world.
"The love Jesus has for you only Jesus can understand it... Jesus has done crazy things for you... May you do the same... Love may only be payed with love and love's wounds are only healed with love."

Bishops comment on election of Pope Benedict XVI
Washington DC, Apr. 20, 2005 (CNA) - Various U.S. bishops have shared their reactions to the election of Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger as Pope Benedict XVI and have indicated that his election signals continuity in the Church's course.
"It says to me that the church is facing a continuity in how it goes about applying the gospel message to our day today," said Bishop Donald Wuerl of Pitstsburgh, who knows the new Pope well, having served on a number of committees with the then Cardinal.
Even though the new Pope's "style and personality" are different from that of his predecessor Pope John Paul II, Bishop Wuerl says that the "substance" of their teaching will be the same and that Catholics should not expect any major changes.
Bishop Joseph Galante of Camden, who said he expected the new pope to be younger and non-european, also pointed to the message of continuity that the election of Benedict XVI signals adding that by electing Ratzinger the Church is reaching out to Europe, where the Church is "not in good shape."
Bishop Robert Morlino of the diocese of Madison said that he was "thrilled" at the news of Benedict XVI´s election to the papacy, suggesting that the new Holy Father will be "a loving Pope."
"I would say he's a humble man in the sense he's very unassuming," commented Brownsville Bishop Raymundo Pena, "if you see him down the street and don't know who he is, you would never think he's a man with a major role in the church."
Commenting on the German Pope's choice of name he said, "His predecessor with the name Benedict XV was a great unifier, a great promoter of unity, a great healer of wounds and maybe he tends to take that type of a role."
"The love Jesus has for you only Jesus can understand it... Jesus has done crazy things for you... May you do the same... Love may only be payed with love and love's wounds are only healed with love."
