Thank you - that's all I asked.

The Pope did NOT say church housekeepers should "give thanks for their vocation to cook and clean for priests so the men could do their important work," but instead congratulated them for their important work, vocation and desire as "Aides" to priests, and said "This spirituality of deep veneration of the priesthood is incarnated for each of you in the humble fulfillment of your daily obligations....to activities that make a living and radiant parish: catechetical teaching, groups of prayer and apostolic movements, the dissemination of the Christian-inspired press, the visit of the sick and the isolated, the preparation of liturgical ceremonies, etc. Once again, I congratulate your Movement for having done much to give the auxiliaries of the priest not only a new title but a style of life and status inspired by the conciliar decree on the apostolate of the laity."
