During his recent visit to Brazil Pope Francis made a quote about Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. He said, "It's like having a grandfather at home. A very wise grandfather. In a family, a grandfather is at home, he is honored, loved and he is listened to."
The team of www.georgganswein.com have reflected on these words and we would like to propose the following initiative: "PENCILS FOR BENEDICT XVI"
.....around the World to send to us an email explaining what Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI means to you, your personal experiences, your reflections...
With all your mails we will make up a book to deliver to Benedict XVI along with a box of pencils. These are symbolic gestures, through which each one of us shows him our love, respect and appreciation. It is a way to ask him to never stop writing in order that one of God's most exquisite instruments may continue to resonate.
Please send your emails to the following address: info@georgganswein.com
The deadline is Monday 30 September 2013.
Thank you …More

I wish I could take part in this effort for the Pope Emeritus but I cannot because of the e mail system. I can't use Microsoft e mail because I got Roadrunner. I wish this effort to be a success however because I started reading most of Benedict's books right after his election and certainly most of his recent ones including Jesus of Nazareth one and two, and of course Lumen Fide which I know is …More
I wish I could take part in this effort for the Pope Emeritus but I cannot because of the e mail system. I can't use Microsoft e mail because I got Roadrunner. I wish this effort to be a success however because I started reading most of Benedict's books right after his election and certainly most of his recent ones including Jesus of Nazareth one and two, and of course Lumen Fide which I know is mostly his work because it does not sound like Francis when you read it. I still love and miss him even after six months and probably up to when he passes away. I like and respect Francis but I do not love him.
