A note from World Youth Day's "Festival of Forgiveness", which was held in Madrid's Retiro Park: Pope Benedict XVI stepped into one of the confessionals to hear a few confessions. Image being one of those young penitents.
In addition, at a Mass for Seminarians in the Almudena cathedral, Pope Benedict declared Saint John of Avila to be a Doctor of the Church, the 34th member of this group of the Church's great teachers.
