Ordination Class of May '84


It is good to know the Pope trusts the Ordinaton Class of May '84: following my Jubilee on May 12th, both the Pope's secretaries celebrated their Jubilees in May as well.
Georg Gänswein was ordained in Germany on May 31, 1984, and Alfred Xuereb in Malta on May 26 that same year.
George, Alfred, congratulations! We must get together next time I'm in Rome.
