New Delhi (Fides Service) - Catholics in India are deeply concerned for the condition of the Pope. In New Delhi Catholics gathered in the cathedral for a special Mass celebrated by Archbishop Vincent Concessao, who celebrates the 10th anniversary of his ordination as Bishop. “People are praying everywhere for the Pope” a spokesman of the Indian Bishops Conference told Fides. “We have received messages of sympathy from many Hindus who assure us of prayers for the Holy Father. The media follow the situation closely. The Pope is deeply loved by Indian Catholics, and he is appreciated and respected also by non Christians”.
