Vatican City (Fides Service) - On Wednesday 15 January, Pope John Paul II gave his audience in the Paul VI Hall in the Vatican. To the thousands of English speaking visitors the Holy Father said: "Dear Brothers and Sisters, In our catechesis on the Psalms used in the Liturgy of the Hours, we now discuss Psalm One Hundred and Eighteen. Composed of twenty-two stanzas, corresponding to the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet, the Psalm is a great celebration of God's word as the source of wisdom, life and truth. In the part used in Morning Prayer for Saturday, the Psalmist describes prayer as a continuous dialogue between God who speaks and the believer who responds with praise and petition. Among the Fathers of the Church, Saint Ambrose urges us to imitate the Psalmist's example by praying constantly each day, from daybreak to the watches of the night. I welcome the pilgrims from Saint Joseph's Parish in Santa Ana, and the students from Saint Mary's College in Moraga, California. Upon all the English-speaking pilgrims and visitors present at today's Audience I cordially invoke God's blessings of joy and peace. See longer address in Italian >> (Fides Service 16/1/2003)
