Great anxiety in Spain due to visit of Benedict XVI

The Holy Father will granted partial indulgences to raise their young increase their prayers to God, boost in charity, increase the strength and dedication to evangelize. He will also give plenary indulgences to those who devoutly participate in any sacred function or pious practice to take place in the international event and at the ceremony, so that they can confess and repent in order to receive the Communion and devoutly pray according to the intentions of his Holiness.

As a curiosity this celebration is Sister Theresa, a nun of the cloister of 103 years of age who has lived the past 84 years of her life in the convent Buenafuente del Sistal. She will come out of the convent this August 21 only to see the Holy Father, who during his stay in Madrid for the WYD will meet several religious on Friday.

Sister Therese entered the convent when she was 19 years and had only gone out of it once during the Spanish Civil War in 1936. (BG)
