CARACAS (ACI/EWTN Noticias) - La EucaristĂa se celebrĂł con motivo de la presentaciĂłn de las credenciales del nuevo embajador venezolano ante la Santa Sede, Germán MundaraĂn Hernández, y tuvo lugar en la BasĂlica Menor de San Lorenzo in Damaso.
La Misa fue concelebrada por el Obispo de Barinas, Mons. JosĂ© Luis Azuaje Ayala; el Obispo de San CristĂłbal, Mons. Mario del Valle Moronta RodrĂguez; y el Arzobispo Auxiliar de Caracas, Mons. JesĂşs González de Zárate Salas.
Durante la homilĂa Mons. PadrĂłn se dirigiĂł a MundaraĂn y a la delegaciĂłn que lo acompañaba en Roma para recordar que la vida diplomática se fundamenta en los principios Ă©ticos y debe dar cuenta del desamparo de los pueblos y estar al servicio del hombre.
El presidente de la CEV, cediĂł la palabra a Mons. Moronta, quien animĂł a todos los venezolanos a ser hombres y mujeres de fe llevar adelante a la naciĂłn. "Que esa puerta que se abre, se siga abriendo no solo entre el estado y la Iglesia, sino entre Venezuela y el mundo", dijo Mons. Moronta.
Al terminar la celebraciĂłn, MundaraĂn expresĂł sus deseos de colaboraciĂłn con la Santa Sede por el bien del pueblo venezolano.
En junio de 2012, el Nuncio Apostólico del Vaticano en Venezuela, Mons. Pietro Parolin, se reunió con el actual presidente, Nicolás Maduro, para fortalecer las relaciones con la Santa Sede.
A partir del próximo 15 de octubre Mons. Parolin comenzará una nueva labor al servicio de la Iglesia como nuevo Secretario de Estado Vaticano y del Papa Francisco, sucediendo asà en el cargo al Cardenal Tarcisio Bertone.
Mons. Parolin tiene 58 años de edad y desde el año 2009 desempeña su labor como Nuncio en Venezuela.
