Gospel Sermons For Sundays After Pentecost (Middle Third)
From the beginning, it seemed, Ludovicio Gadda was destined for greatness. He was born in a small Italian town, like many of the popes, all from Italy, who have occupied the Chair of Saint Peter since the time of the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century.

He lived by the canons and doctrines of the Faith. Ludovico was good at what he did. Thus, he was made bishop of the diocese.
