RNS POPE INSTALLATION

RNS Blog Editor

(RNS1-APR24) Pope Benedict XVI celebrates his installation Mass in St. Peter’s Square in the
Vatican, April 24, 2005. Setting the tone of his papacy, he ordered humanity to rediscover God if it
wanted to transform the world’s deserts of poverty, pain and privation into the gardens of peace and
progress. See RNS-POPE-INSTALLATION, transmited April 24, 2005. Photo by Grzegorz

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
