On a very sad note I add that among several good friends that passed away this year , in mid-August the great Paolo Ricca died aged 88 , leaving us sorrowful but grateful for all he has done and taught us . Above all , grateful to the Lord who gifted us this exceptional brother . All over Italy and also abroad from every Church and institutions , dozens of obituaries and commemorations poured and are still pouring in . On top of having been my Catechism teacher when an ordinand in Turin and becoming a great friend when I grew up , he was my godbrother and I always felt part of all the loving and blessed Ricca family .
Life goes on , though , and I am delighted to tell everyone that Rev . Claudia Lupi Ricco daughter ’ s Micol is now studying Theology at Cambridge , staying at Westminster College !!!
Hoping to see as many of you as possible at Downing Place , Cambridge in January , I wish everyone a joyful and peaceful Christmas !
