Join Fr. Patrick Howell, SJ as he considers the surprising resignation of the Pope. Pope Benedict's surprise resignation suddenly opened the potential for a new time in the church. Father Howell will highlight some of the landmarks of Benedict's eight years as pope, speculate on the top three or four candidates to become the new pope, explain the election process, and describe some of the possible changes for the next decade in the Catholic Church. We hope a lively discussion will follow. This event is FREE and open to the public. Please RSVP to ICTC@seattleu.edu. Sponsored by the Institute for Catholic Thought and Culture (ICTC) and the Catholic Studies Program.
