After saying the Angelus, yesterday morning, Benedict XCVI recalled that yesterday afternoon in Novara there would be the beatification of "the venerable Servant of God Antonio Rosmini, a great figure of a priest and an illustrious man of culture, enlivened by a fervent love of God and the Church", who "bore witness to the virtue of charity in all its dimensions and on a high level". According to the Pope, "what made him most famous was his generous commitment to what he called ‘intellectual charity’, in other words, the reconciliation of reason and faith". "May his example stated the Holy See help the Church, especially the Italian ecclesial communities, grow in the awareness that the light of the human reason and the light of Grace, when they walk together, become a source of blessing for man and for society".
