RORATE CAELI: "Never yield to compromises!"

RORATE CAELI has a post on the Holy Father's trip to Savona, Liturgia and his homily at the Papal Mass. He has included a transcript link to the homily, but has highlighted a portion of what Pope Benedict said as important to all Christians:

As your Bishop has fairly observed, that dark page of the history of Europe became, by the power of the Holy Spirit, rich of graces and of teachings, even for our days. It teaches us the courage to confront the challenges of the world, Materialism, Relativism, Laicism, without ever yielding to compromises, willing to pay in person in order to remain faithful to the Lord and to his Church. The example of serene firmness given by Pope Pius VII invites us to keep the faith in God unchanged in the trials, in the knowledge that He, if also allowing difficult moments for his Church, never abandons her. The event lived by the great Pontiff in your land invites us to always trust in the intercession and in the maternal assistance of Mary Most Holy.
