Habemus Papam! Benedictus XVI! Josephus  Cardinalis Ratzinger! Agamus Deo gratias! Thanks be to God! Blessed be God, and His Mother, through whom we have a new Pope, a new Father in the Faith! I, Omar Loggiodice, as a seminarian of God, and a Catholic faithful, pledge my full and complete obedience to our new Holy Father. For the furthering of the faith and the salvation of all peoples.
And I ask the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Mother, and Mother of Our New Pope, to protect him, guide him, give him strength in those difficult moments under the weight he will have to shoulder. I ask, oh Most Blessed Mother, to grant Him special graces, even beyond those appropriate for the Petrine office, so that he may make many saints in the Holy Church that your Son established. Amen.
In the Holy Eucharist,
Omar Loggiodce
