Conclave Set to Start

Dear Donald,
The Cardinals have announced that the conclave to elect the next pope will convene on Tuesday.
Naturally, attention will now focus the most important priorities for the Church, and who might lead the Church in the optimum direction. Phil Lawler has a particularly arresting viewpoint: The key issue for the coming conclave is transparency.
Phil also continues to point out excellent columns by others: Perceptive commentary: Magister, Royal.
CatholicCulture.org has begun to publish occasional editorial cartoons, done by our affiliated artist, Chris Pelicano. Here are two of them, which portray media coverage of events in Rome:
We'll be interested in how our users respond.
I suspect it is important not to get so bound up in the news from Rome that we let Lent slip by without spiritual growth. It seems like we are always working on “secondary” things. I offer a personal lament with, hopefully, a spiritual twist: For Lent: Our Inability to Focus on What We Love.
Another profitable way to use this period between popes is to reflect more seriously on the nature of the Church. For me, in a very deep sense, the Church is Christ. I hope you'll find some inspiration in my latest In Depth AnalysisThe Church: Like Us in All Things, But Without Sin.
