How Pope Benedict XVI is Remembered in His Native Germany | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

This Saturday marks the 10th anniversary of the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI. During a meeting on February 11th, 2013 Pope Benedict announced his resignation in Latin. It took effect a few weeks later. He retained the title of Pope Emeritus until his death late last year. But how is he remembered in his native country of Germany? EWTN Vatican Producer and Correspondent for CNA Deutsch, Rudolf Gehrig, joins to tell us where he is at in Germany right now and why it is so important for the faithful. Today, many still do not understand why Pope Benedict resigned nearly 10 years ago. Gehrig discusses whether we have learned anything new recently. He shares how the Pope Emeritus is remembered in his native country of Germany. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
